Conference 2026 – Tickets

The 30th edition of National Rural Touring Forum’s flagship Conference comes to the heart of England this summer. The rural touring community across the UK will descend on Wolverhampton to champion rural and small-scale touring. To add to the celebrations the Rural Touring Awards will take place on the evening of Wednesday 10 June, recognising innovation, dedication and quality within the Rural Touring sector.

Attending the three day conference will allow you to experience keynote presentations, panels and discussion groups, as well as showcases and ballyhoos which represent the diverse rural touring work available for programming. There will also be a celebration of the Rural Touring Dance Initiative as it draws to a close in its current format. Expect three days of sharing, questions and networking alongside a celebration of three decades of the NRTF.

Join us in June to share the hopes and challenges facing our brilliant sector in 2026 and beyond.
