LiGHT 25 – the UK’s only trade show dedicated to high-end lighting specification – returns to the Business Design Centre, Islington, London, 19–20 November 2025.
Following the 2024 event that welcomed more than 5,500 visitors, this year’s show continues to evolve, with one development being the introduction of the Technical Zone, located in the Gallery Hall. The new zone will showcase brands such as Casambi, Eldoled, Kvant, ProtoPixel, and TM Technologie, and is designed specifically for companies in urban and commercial lighting, control systems, OEM components, lamps, gear, and emergency lighting.
Alongside hundreds of decorative and architectural lighting brands, attendees can enjoy an array of engaging content, including the return of the dedicated two-day [D]arc Thoughts talks programme, which, for another year running, is in collaboration with Lutron.
The exhibition also offers opportunities for networking, branding and social engagement. Visitors can connect with exhibitors directly on their stands, enjoy late-night welcome drinks on the opening evening, and take part in the LiGHT Lunch on day two. More informal catch-ups can happen over coffee at Jacks, the on-site gallery-level café, or in the LiGHT Work lounge – a calm, dedicated space designed for deeper conversations and collaborative meetings.
Helen Ankers, managing editor at [D]arc Media, said:‘We are delighted to bring the lighting and design communities together for the most anticipated UK event in the lighting industry for the fourth year running. LiGHT 25 is not just for lighting designers – we value bringing together inspiring leaders and passionate people to share ideas and solutions to grow the future of the entire industry. A common misconception is that trade shows dedicated to lighting specification are just for lighting specialists, yet by bringing together architects, interior designers and other professionals in the community, with innovative brands and suppliers, LiGHT 25 is the perfect opportunity to network and seek inspiration, whatever role you play in a project.’
