SUMMARY:One Day Conference 2026
DESCRIPTION:NABMA One Day Conference 2026 \nWhat’s Next for Markets: Supporting Change and Devolution \nThe government is advancing an ambitious new round of local government reorganisation\, a process that will replace two-tier local government – comprising county councils and district councils – with a new single tier of unitary authorities. The agenda will have a huge impact on NABMA members\, and NABMA as the voice of markets itself. Our Conference sets out to highlight potential risks and opportunities for local government as leaders embed these new authorities and transform local public services. \nEarly booking available below. \n\n                    NABMA Conference 5 Feb 2026First NameLast NameEmailLocal Authority and / or Market NameAre you a NABMA\, ATCM or NMTF Member?

SUMMARY:NABMA Annual AGM & Conference 2025
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Premier Markets Conference of the Year for Market Operators offering an opportunity to catch up\, learn and network about what is happening in the markets industry \nNABMA is delighted to return to Stratford-upon-Avon\, a most popular venue with our delegates\, for our AGM and Conference 2025. The theme of our Conference is ‘Markets Connecting Communities’. \nThe NABMA Markets First Campaign 2023/25 set priority areas that included examining the wider impact of markets. Our research and performance network reinforced the importance of the community aspect of markets\, and we are encouraged that this is being recognised by government. \nFirstly\, the importance of markets connecting communities has been endorsed by the House of Lords last year in their Report ‘High Streets: Life beyond retail?’ It concludes that markets can boost footfall on high streets and contribute to the unique character of towns and small cities across the country. In addition\, they not only contribute to local economies but can also act as catalysts for the high street brands of tomorrow. \nSecondly\, the fact that markets can play a lead role in connecting communities can be advocated as opportunities within the government publication of its prospectus\, Plan for Neighbourhoods 2025 with many aspirations that markets can help meet embracing busy high streets and local amenities. \nOur Conference will set out to explore how markets connect with communities that then relate to national policies\, strategies\, performance and investment\, and as drivers of change. \nCan you afford not to be part of the discussion at Stratford upon Avon as market professionals come together to learn\, network\, share experiences and look to the future of the industry that we are all proud to represent. \nThe 2025 conference returns to the Crowne Plaza in Stratford-Upon-Avon. \n\nFully booked – No rooms available | Full Conference – AGM and Conference\, lunches\, receptions\, welcome buffet\, Gala Awards Dinner\, and overnight accommodation Tuesday (incl breakfast) (£350 + VAT = £420)\nTuesday Conference only including lunch (£150 + VAT = £180)\nWednesday Conference only including lunch (£100 + VAT = £120)\nGala Dinner Ticket only (£75 + VAT = £90)\n\nBookings are now closed for this event.

SUMMARY:NABMA Annual AGM & Conference 2024
DESCRIPTION:The theme for the 2024 conference is ‘Markets of Today and Tomorrow’ as we return to the Doubletree by Hilton Harrogate Majestic Hotel and Spa; a most popular venue for our AGM and Conference This year we have mid-week dates of 25 – 26 September. \nNABMA is again delighted to announce and welcome Vitabri\, as our conference sponsor for a third year. Vitabri is renowned for its high-quality products\, designed and produced in France. \nTo recognise the support from NABMA members in committing further to membership we have held all member delegate fees as per 2023. We hope you will take advantage of this offer. \nLast year our Conference theme was markets at the crossroads. This year\, we will consider the various directions now being taken by markets as they continue to encounter the economic problems from within society generally\, and the performance of their high streets. We will also look at the financial difficulties being created from local and national government funding with markets as a discretionary service. \nSome markets have a vision and a plan; some are benefiting from being part of government support initiatives; but for others the future remains unclear. So\, appreciating these circumstances\, it is perhaps reasonable to have an opinion that we understand what markets in 2024 are now facing – but what is their future\, and that of the industry and NABMA itself to be? \nWill the many platitudes that markets receive from government and high street partners continue to be meaningless\, or will they be converted into some tangible reward?  \nWill markets really be a part of the revival and regeneration of town and city centres and\, if so\, what will their role be? \nOur challenge with the NABMA national campaign\,  #MarketsFirst\, and as an industry\, is to continue to create the discussions\, drive change\, secure recognition and\, importantly safeguard a future for UK markets. Markets of today and their traders\, operators and national organisations have a huge collective responsibility to ensure that there are markets of the future. Our conference theme aims to facilitate that discussion. \nCan you afford not to be part of the discussion at Harrogate as market professionals come together to learn\, network\, share experiences and look at a new vision for the markets industry? \nBookings are now closed for this event.

SUMMARY:One Day Conference 2024
DESCRIPTION:NABMA Launches January Conference 2024 \nWe are delighted to announce the details for our ever popular New Year Conference to be held on Thursday 25 January 2024. \nThe theme of the conference is ‘Markets at the Crossroads’. We will also announce the Great British Market Awards 2024. \nConference Invitation Jan 2024\nDownload the PDF here \nAs a reminder\, our October conference highlighted the very different picture being experienced by many markets within their local communities. For some there is blue sky. Since the pandemic we have seen certain markets benefit as part of some £127 million of government support. \nThe government has recently announced it is investing £1.1 billion into 55 towns and establishing a new Towns Taskforce\, reporting directly to the Prime Minister. But for many towns and their markets then they are not receiving any of this help. So\, what is their future? \nThis varied position has led to the theme of ‘Markets at the Crossroads’ being the focus for our highly popular January one day conference that again returns to Birmingham. \nOnce again we are grateful to Blachere Illumination for their continuing sponsorship of this\, the first main markets event of a  New Year. \nAfter the success of recent events we are again returning to the very popular Burlington Hotel immediately adjacent to Birmingham New Street Station. \nPlease book early and we hope to see you in Birmingham. \n\n                    NABMA Conference 25 Jan 2024First NameLast NameEmailLocal Authority and / or Market NameAre you a NABMA\, ATCM or NMTF Member?

SUMMARY:NABMA Annual AGM & Conference 2023
DESCRIPTION:#MarketsFirst 2023 – Your Invitation \nNABMA are delighted to return to Harrogate\, a most popular venue for our AGM and Conference 2023 \nThe Conference is focused on our #MarketsFirst National Campaign. The campaign was promoted as a result of the NABMA Survey\, published in October 2022\, that highlighted that the market industry faces major challenges in the years ahead. It was the most important research undertaken on our industry since 2018. We are pleased the campaign is supported by NMTF. \nThese challenges arise from many factors including the pandemic\, the economic crisis and the general difficulties faced by town and city centres and the performance of their high streets. \nImportantly\, if markets are to remain as a real asset within the levelling up agenda\, then there many critical conversations to be had\, and much work to be done by the two national market organisations working with government\, operators\, and traders alike. \nThere are many challenges to face\, but also opportunities to set a new vision for markets. Within the industry we understand the considerable community contribution that markets offer as part of many national and local policy agendas. The industry recognises the many roles that they perform\, including acting as a footfall generator to assist the regeneration of town and city centres and\, most importantly\, as a valuable outlet for entrepreneurship and start-up businesses.  The agenda\, after the pandemic is now much greater with markets having a role to play in addressing climate change and levelling up. Our challenge with #MarketsFirst is create the discussions\, drive change\, secure recognition and\, a future for UK markets. \nWithin our membership there is much to share and discuss in terms of good practice\, opportunities and challenges. Our conference programme will address many of these issues and therefore Harrogate will be the place to be on 9/10 October. \nCan you afford not to be part of the discussion at Harrogate as market professionals come together to learn\, network\, share experiences and look at a new vision for the markets industry? \nMick Barker \nNABMA President  \n  \nOur Conference Theme – #MarketsFirst \nThe Markets Industry is recognised by government as a top factor to help deliver vibrant high streets. \nMarkets are a focus for start-up business\, retail\, tourism\, hospitality\, and social inclusion. They are an important community asset. \nHowever\, coming out of the pandemic\, the NABMA Survey 2022 provided some worrying messages for the industry. NABMA launched in April 2023 a National Campaign to address the Survey headlines that revealed. \n–           Stall occupancy is down from 77% to 72% \n–           The number of traders is now less that 30\,000 \n–           Only 8% of traders are under 40 years of age \n–           84% of markets are operated or controlled by local authorities \n–           Only 40% of markets have an annual financial surplus \n–           Only 13% can record footfall \n  \n#MarketsFirst has five key priorities\, each with an aim and action plan. The Campaign will run for twelve months and is about providing regular updates\, sharing of best practice\, forums for discussion and publication of resources to assist markets and market trading. Our priorities are. \nPRIORITY 1. Attracting and retaining traders \nPRIORITY 2. Addressing the economic challenges of Markets \nPRIORITY 3. Demonstrating the wider value of Markets \nPRIORITY 4. Making the approach to Markets management more professional. \nPRIORITY 5. Improving relationship with traders \n  \nEach of the conference sessions will relate to the priorities and topical issues in the industry. \nA Welcome from our Conference Sponsor – Vitabri \nNABMA is delighted to announce and welcome Vitabri\, as our conference sponsor for a second year. Vitabri is renowned for its high-quality products\, designed and produced in France. \nVitabri Chief Executive Emmanuel Musner confirmed “ We again look forward to welcoming NABMA delegates to Harrogate and spending time together”. \n“Vitabri is an established brand in the worldwide market industry and we are excited about working in partnership with NABMA and its membership in the months ahead. As a company we share the same values as NABMA and look forward to bringing our premium outdoor equipment\, modern solutions and expertise to the UK market industry.

It is a Victorian spa town and rural district that contains the medieval city of Ripon\, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and four charming but very different market towns; Boroughbridge\, Knaresborough\, Masham and Pateley Bridge. \nBuilt in 1889 our conference hotel has become a part of the DoubleTree by Hilton collection.

DESCRIPTION:The NABMA Annual Conference will be at DoubleTree by Hilton Harrogate Majestic Hotel & Spa and the rescheduled details are now: \nYour invitation to NABMA 2022\, our Annual Conference and AGM which is being held from the 27th & 28th October 2022 at the Double Tree Hilton Harrogate Majestic Hotel and Spa. \nA most popular venue on the NABMA circuit of conference venues. \nNew dates for the AGM and Conference 2022 are now 27/28 October at the DoubleTree by Hilton Harrogate Majestic Hotel & Spa \nWe are very grateful to the majority of the original delegates that have rebooked the October dates. \nAs a reminder\, we have managed to renegotiate a two day/one night Conference on 27/28 October. Going later in the year would result in clashes with Christmas events and also probably impact on our January event. In the financial interests of NABMA therefore we took this option despite recognising the huge logistical challenge of rearranging and delivering a conference in less than 6 weeks. \nAt the moment our reduced allocation of hotel rooms is full and we are still in negotiations with the hotel to try and secure additional rooms. We are however offering the below packages that give you flexibility to attend conference but make your own accommodation arrangements. \nPlease note that we have now reached the point were all our allocated hotel rooms have been taken. \nHowever\, we are still taking bookings for NABMA members only and are offering packages that are now exclusive of accommodation. This enables delegates to attend the conference and make their own arrangements for accommodation either in Harrogate itself\, or slightly further afield when rates may be cheaper. \nBookings are now live for this event. \nRevised Conference Packages \nPACKAGE A\nAs originally advertised is no longer available \nPACKAGE B\nThursday and Friday Conference\, lunches and Gala Dinner\n£225 plus VAT \nPACKAGE C\nThursday Conference only plus lunch\n£150 plus VAT \nPACKAGE D\nFriday Conference only plus lunch\n£100 plus VAT \nIf you wish to take advantage of these revised offers then we ask you to book early to be sure of your place(s). \nBookings are now closed for this event.

SUMMARY:NABMA One Day Virtual Conference 2021
DESCRIPTION:When is it? \nNABMA is pleased to announce details of its popular One Day Conference that will be held on: \nThursday 4 February 2021 from 0930 to 1330 by Zoom. \nSadly\, we will not be able to meet at the Council House\, Birmingham as usual for the first major markets event of a new year\, but we can bring everyone together\, either in your office or at home\, in a digital get together. We hope you will join us. \nOur Conference discussion. \nWithout doubt 2020 has been an unprecedented year of worry\, change and threat to markets and market people. NABMA surveys suggest that many in the industry have concerns and a lack of confidence about the future. Others have a different viewpoint as some markets are suggesting that emerging from the pandemic is their moment in the sunshine as they experience a renewed trust\, and both returning and new customers. A consistent viewpoint however is that markets can play a leading role in supporting firstly the survival\, and then the renaissance\, of our high streets. \nSo\, our Conference will pose the question as we enter 2021– are our markets really in crisis? \nWhy should I attend? \nThe conference will be of interest to anyone with a passion and commitment to the future of their markets. As one of the recognised top influences to create vital and vibrant streets then markets can play a prominent role in offering business start-ups alongside their attraction to boost tourism\, employment\, the local economy and social cohesion. We appreciate that our industry will continue to face many challenges as a result of the impact of the pandemic. We are also aware that in recent months markets have demonstrated resilience and a positive appetite to accept change\, that can create new opportunities\, and at the same time attract new people and new ways of trading to our markets. \nOur draft programme \n  \n\nAn invitation has been sent to Kelly Tolhurst MP\, the government Minister with responsibility for High Streets in her portfolio.\nMark Robinson\, Chairman of the High Street Task Force Board who is guiding the work of the Task Force and acting as a national voice for high streets\, supporting them to transform town and city centres.\nJoe Barrett\, co-founder of Teenage Market and member of the Government’s High Street Taskforce.\nA panel session of market experts who will look at how markets and market management will need to change\, evolve and attract new traders to sustain the industry and the high street.\nSessions of good practice from markets that are meeting the challenges in terms of use of social media\, modern technology and encouraging cashless operations to reinvent themselves.\nThe award ceremony for the NABMA promoted Blachere Illumination Market Heroes 2020 as we recognise both markets and market people that have made a difference within their communities during the pandemic.\n\n  \nBooking Arrangements \nOur aim is to bring as many markets people together as possible to discuss the future of our industry. We have therefore decided to keep costs low with an individual NABMA delegate fee of just £50 plus vat. \nNon NABMA members are welcome to join with us at £75 plus vat per delegate. \nBook Now here https://nabma.com/nabma-one-day-virtual-conference-2021/ or below\n  \nNABMA looks forward to our One Day Conference and the chance to bring the NABMA family and friends together at the start of another challenging year for markets. We do hope you will join us. \n\n                    LYLM Digital AssetsFirst NameLast NameMarket / Authority NamePlease send the LYLM digital assets to me via: WeTransfer by Email Shared Dropbox Folder Shared Google Drive Folder Direct Download Link (Zip File)Email Address for above selectionRequest the Digital Assets            \n            \n
