LiGHT 25 expands with NEW Technical Zone, creating more opportunities for the industry

LiGHT 25, the UK’s only trade show dedicated to high-end lighting specification, is set to return to the Business Design Centre in Islington, London, on 19th and 20th of November 2025.

Following its success in 2024, which welcomed over 5,500 visitors, the upcoming exhibition promises even more innovation, education, and networking opportunities, with a major highlight being the introduction of the brand-new Technical Zone.

This year, exhibitors will have the chance to be part of the Technical Zone, a dedicated space for brands focused on shaping the future of urban lighting, commercial lighting, control systems, components and OEM, lamps and gear, and emergency lighting. As lighting controls, emergency systems, and advanced components continue to play an increasingly important role in sustainable and human-centric design, the Technical Zone will offer an invaluable platform for both exhibitors and visitors to connect with industry experts, explore the latest products, and gain insights into technical advancements.

LiGHT 25 continues to attract thousands of architects, interior designers, lighting designers, engineers, and specifiers, all eager to see the latest product innovations and launches from hundreds of architectural and decorative lighting brands. Organised by [d]arc media, the event offers a rich programme of activities beyond the exhibition floor.

The renowned [d]arc thoughts talks programme will once again take centre stage, bringing together leading voices from the industry to discuss the latest trends, technologies, and challenges in lighting design. Moderated by editors from the industry’s leading magazines arc and darc, alongside guest moderators, the talks provide valuable insights into the future of lighting. The dedicated Associations Lounge will also return for a second year, offering an exclusive platform for professional organisations and featuring a dedicated splinter talks programme.

LiGHT 25 is more than just an exhibition – it’s a hub for industry connections. Visitors can network at the late-night drinks party on the 19th of November, engage in insightful conversations at the networking brunch on the 20th of November, or collaborate in the dedicated co-working space.

Lighting the way from concept to creation, LiGHT 25 continues to set the benchmark for the industry, and it is completely free to attend. Don’t miss the opportunity to experience the latest in lighting innovation and expand your professional network.
