LiGHT 24 is the UK’s only dedicated high-end lighting exhibition, but the event is not just for lighting designers! Welcoming individuals from all areas of the lighting, interior design and architectural communities, there is something for everyone at the show – from numerous networking opportunities through to the exclusive [d]arc thoughts talks programme.
LiGHT 24 provides unrivalled networking, branding and socialising opportunities; visitors can meet with exhibitors on their stands, enjoy late-night welcome drinks during the first evening, and take part in the popular LiGHT Lunch on day two of the event. There are many other areas to casually socialise with others in the industry, such as grabbing a coffee at the on-site cafe, Jacks, on the gallery level, or heading over to the dedicated workspace LiGHT WORK for quieter surroundings, allowing you to discuss potential project collaborations in more detail.
LiGHT LUNCH and Silhouette Awards event
This year, LiGHT LUNCH will be centred around a Women in Industry networking event – the lunch, with representatives from Women in Lighting, Women Lighting Professionals, Women in Office Design, Women in Architecture, and the Women in Furniture Network, offers an in-person insightful opportunity to find out more about these empowering initiatives and how to get involved. The event will also include a panel discussion focused on why women’s groups in the industry are important for both women and men. Another key networking opportunity will be the Silhouette Awards event, which involves the entire global lighting community, featuring advice from the programme’s mentors and mentees, education insights, presentations, discussions, and all-important photo opportunities.
Visitors can also enjoy two days of discussions at the exclusive [d]arc thoughts talks programme, featuring renowned experts in the lighting, design and architectural communities, providing advice and project inspiration. Curated and moderated by the [d]arc media editorial team, this year’s programme includes a wide variety of themes, focusing on the impact that interiors and lighting have on our environments through sustainable and human-centric designs.
Each day is split into themes, with Wednesday covering the Business of Design and Lighting + Interiors, while Thursday focuses on Wellness, Sustainability, and designing for the Planet.
The programme
The programme kicks off on Wednesday 20th November with the Business of Design talks, including topics such as The Next Generation of Design, Time to Step Up – The role of a lighting designer, Taking the Leap, and The Value of Light – AI Takeaway. Wednesday’s Light + Interiors discussions continue with talks: Using Lighting Design to Enhance Accessibility in Interiors, presented by the BIID, and a presentation of the relationship between Interior Design and Architectural Lighting.
Thursday’s programme has an overarching theme of designing for people and the planet. The Wellness talks cover everything from Lighting Controls for People and Planet, Maximising Wellbeing in Residential Environments, to Neurodiversity & Lighting. The Sustainability focus includes an overview of the environmental assessment landscape in the lighting industry, while the planet portion of the programme features talks on Starlight Certification & Outdoor Lighting, A Pilot Project for Sea Turtle Conservation, and Dark Frontier, which takes a closer look at dark sky friendly lighting schemes.

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 third year running. LiGHT 24 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 24 is the perfect opportunity to network and seek inspiration, whatever role you play in a project.”
The show takes place on the 20th and 21st of November 2024 at the Business Design Centre in London. Secure your place to attend so that you don’t miss out on any of the key show events that are on offer.
