Birmingham, United Kingdom plays host to VeXpo 2026, the VTuber-centred Convention, from 18 September 2026 to 20 September 2026, welcoming the sector for another closely watched edition. The event pulls together voices from across the discipline — on stage, in the audience and in the conversations between. Its annual cadence means there is always a next date on the horizon to aim for. Expect to join around 2200 attendees over the course of the event. Everything comes together under the roof of National Exhibition Centre, a venue that handles events of this size with ease.

Location matters, and Birmingham delivers. It brings together the infrastructure of a major event city with the warmth of a place used to hosting guests from abroad. Reaching Birmingham is straightforward, with strong international connections and local transport that make getting to the venue easy. From polished chain hotels to independent boutiques, Birmingham has a bed for every budget and taste.

Programming centres on Pop Culture, Anime, Manga, Cosplay, Comics and Entertainment, Media & Culture, with sessions designed to surface fresh ideas and real-world insights. The schedule leaves room to breathe, with breaks built for the conversations that matter as much as the talks. Coffee breaks, lunches and socials are as much a part of the value as the sessions themselves.

It is the kind of event where a single conversation can reshape a project. VeXpo 2026 is an essential date for strategists, builders and the teams behind them.
