AI Creative Summit 2026 expands to full BFI Southbank venue
The AI Creative Summit is taking over the entire BFI Southbank on 11 November for the first time, marking a significant expansion for its fourth edition. The event, organized by Broadcast, Screen International, and Broadcast Tech, will operate as a festival-style hub across the venue's full footprint.
First release tickets are selling out. The special price batch costs £415 plus VAT-a £115 saving over standard admission. Only a handful remain available.
What's changing in 2026
The summit will introduce three parallel content streams, allowing attendees to navigate multiple tracks simultaneously. The expanded programme includes practical demos, thought leadership sessions, and case studies from industry experts.
Previous attendees include Disney, Netflix, Warner Bros. Discovery, Apple TV+, BBC, ITV Studios, NBC Universal, Sony Pictures Television, and Channel 4.
Charlotte Wheeler, director of the AI Creative Summit, said the 2026 edition reflects the industry's rapid evolution. "Taking over the entire venue and introducing three content streams means we can go deeper, showcase more work, and create more meaningful connections across the creative community," she said.
Who should attend
The summit targets creative and media professionals working with AI in entertainment, broadcasting, and production. The full programme and speaker lineup will be announced soon.
