The Fire Safety Event Europe – advancing competence across the built environment

From 27–29 April 2027, The Fire Safety Event Europe returns to NEC Birmingham, bringing together professionals from across fire safety, construction, facilities management and the wider built environment. As expectations around competence, regulation and building performance continue to evolve, the exhibition provides opportunities to explore new technologies, share technical knowledge and engage with the organisations helping to deliver safer buildings.

Across three days, visitors can explore the latest fire safety systems, attend CPD-accredited seminars and discuss emerging regulatory requirements with manufacturers, consultants, fire engineers and industry bodies. Co-located with The Security Event, The Health & Safety Event and The Workplace Event, the exhibition also reflects the increasingly integrated approach required to manage modern buildings throughout their lifecycle.

Highlights for 2027 include:

• CPD-accredited seminars covering passive and active fire protection, competency, inspection, maintenance, digital information management and developments in regulation.
• Specialist technical theatres bringing together fire engineers, manufacturers, regulators and industry organisations to share practical experience and discuss emerging standards.
• Live product demonstrations showcasing developments in fire detection, suppression, emergency lighting, evacuation systems and passive fire protection.
• Hundreds of exhibitors presenting products and services spanning every aspect of fire safety, from specification and installation through to inspection, maintenance and ongoing compliance.
• Co-located exhibitions covering security, workplace safety and health and safety, encouraging collaboration across the wider built environment.

Whether specifying products, managing buildings or developing fire strategies, visitors can engage directly with technical specialists while gaining valuable insight into current industry practice.

For organisations involved in timber construction, the event provides an opportunity to understand the wider regulatory and technical context influencing specification, fire strategy and building management.

The Fire Safety Event Europe continues to provide a valuable forum for knowledge exchange, supporting competence and collaboration across the UK’s fire safety community.
