ICC Wales is celebrating a huge business milestone with its confirmed event pipeline, which is expected to generate more than £75.8m in local economic benefit, with 2025 events contributing more than £39m alone.
The extensive lineup of conferences, exhibitions, and large-scale events which are booked from now until as far ahead as 2028 span a range of sectors including technology, healthcare, education and renewable energy.
Events confirmed for the venue include Les Mills UK Experience Event for 2024, the Royal College of General Practitioners Annual Conference and Exhibition 2025, and the Worldchefs Congress and Expo in 2026.
A growing number of repeat business wins returning to stage conferences at ICC Wales include the Association of Corporate Treasurers and the Independent Schools Bursars’ Association.
In addition to the immediate economic impact of the events, which are expected to draw more than 100,000 delegates from across the world to Newport, they will also contribute to the long-term growth of the region through repeat visits, future events and ongoing relationships between event organisers and the local community.
Discussing the announcement Ian Edwards, CEO of ICC Wales said:”We are proud to have secured such a diverse and impactful range of events for the next year and beyond. The economic impact these events will have on the local community and beyond is significant and is a testament to the world-class facilities and services we offer at ICC Wales. This success reinforces our position as a leading convention centre not just in the UK, but on the global stage.”
