Last call to host events at Leicester Business Festival 2024

Businesses interested in hosting events should act now by submitting their Leicester Business Festival (LBF) event applications before the deadline.

Two weeks remain for businesses to submit their event applications for LBF 2024, which is celebrating its 10th anniversary. The closing date to submit event applications will be Wednesday 18th September 2024, at 11:59 pm. 

The online application form is simple to use and available on Leicester Business Festival website at www.leicesterbusinessfestival.com which provides easy, step-by-step guidance, with plenty of resources available to help plan a successful event. 

Richard Osborn, Regional Director at Excello Law and Chair of the LBF Community Interest Company (CIC), says, “LBF is celebrating 10 years, a milestone that highlights the dedication of the hundreds of businesses that have made it a success. There’s still time to get involved in LBF 2024, but businesses should act quickly. This festival not only showcases individual businesses but also helps elevate Leicester and Leicestershire as prime locations for businesses. 

He adds, “With early applications proving popular, this year's festival is shaping up to be one of our most engaging yet. Covering a wide range of topics and event types — from productivity, podcasts, business growth and wellbeing strategies — new events are being announced weekly, and spots are already being secured.” 

Hosting an event at LBF 2024, from 4th to 15th November, provides significant benefits, including increased exposure, valuable networking, and enhanced business recognition. With over 43,000 attendees over nine years, this key regional fortnight attracts businesses of all sizes.
