We can confirm we will return to InstallerSHOW in June 2026 with a refreshed programme for our Bathroom Pavilion, curated to spark discussion, share best practice and help the industry respond to the challenges and opportunities ahead.
Amy Kirk, Marketing and Events Director at the Bathroom Association, said: “We’re excited to be bringing the Bathroom Pavilion back to InstallerSHOW in 2026. Our sector is at its strongest when the supply chain is working together: manufacturers, retailers, distributors, and installers learning from each other, sharing knowledge, and tackling the big issues collectively. After a very successful show in 2025, we’re returning with a programme that combines practical insights with forward-looking conversations and creates the space for the industry to connect.”
Day one, Tuesday 23 June, sets the tone for the week with a strong emphasis on the big conversations shaping the sector. Daphne Doody-Green, the Association’s CEO, will be speaking at the World Plumbing Council Conference at 11 am, and at 11.15 am, the Bathroom Pavilion programme turns to one of the defining issues facing the UK: meeting water demand. This will incorporate a technical session exploring Ofwat’s Water Efficiency Lab, chaired by the Association’s Technical Director, Andy McLean and led by Jude Noro (Policy Lead, Ofwat), who will share how the regulator is driving innovation through its wider Water Efficiency Fund, showcasing winning projects from the Lab’s first competition and outlining the theme and opportunities for the next round.
The day also includes the Bristan Race for Change drinks reception from 4 pm, connecting the Bathroom Pavilion to one of the most distinctive initiatives on the calendar. Race for Change 2026 is a new four-day European charity race designed specifically for construction professionals, built around teamwork, problem-solving and resilience.
Day two shifts towards practical growth and visibility for bathroom businesses, with a session from Troy Linehan, focused on how social media and paid advertising can generate sales and build momentum, which is particularly valuable for anyone looking to sharpen their digital approach. Then, at 4 pm, the Designers Disco returns with the excellent DJ, Ron Stephenson.
Day three brings the programme back to standards, technical direction and the international context, with a session featuring the International Code Council. With expert input from Tom Roberts and Mark Falcon, the session will examine how codes and standards shape outcomes and what UK audiences can learn from global best practice as the sector continues to evolve.
A feature across all three days will be the Association’s invite-only Members Networking Breakfast, with the first day reserved for Managing Directors. On days two and three, all invited members will be welcomed with tea and coffee plus breakfast rolls, offering a relaxed setting to reconnect, meet new contacts and strengthen ties across the supply chain.
The Bathroom Pavilion will once again provide a platform for shared learning and collaboration, helping attendees leave with practical insights, a stronger network, and a clearer sense of where the sector can go next when the supply chain moves forward together.
