For over 20 years, FoodBev's annual UK Soft Drinks Conference has brought together senior industry producers, suppliers, retailers, innovators, opinion formers and advisers to provide the fullest possible one day overview of the latest developments, issues and opportunities alongside extensive networking. Held in association with British Soft Drinks Association.

The 26th annual UK Soft Drinks Conference is the industry's leading annual forum to hear about the latest market developments, explore emerging trends, debate key issues and network with other business leaders. The 2026 programme will feature presentations from industry leaders, experts, retailers and innovators exploring the latest market and consumer trends, opportunities, and challenges - with a sharp focus on sustainability, innovation, emerging segments, and dynamic growth opportunities. Dedicated networking breaks will enable attendees to build new connections, with an expected audience of up to 225 senior industry managers, innovators, retailers, suppliers, opinion formers and advisers. Other highlights include the Innovator Marketplace (offering brand companies the opportunity to showcase their beverages for all attendees to sample) and presentation of the UK Soft Drinks Awards 2026.
