What the fair covers
Packaging materials, machinery and design solutions are the focus. Annual trade event uniting packaging design innovation and supply across cosmetics, food and luxury sectors. That shapes both the exhibitor mix and the questions worth preparing before you arrive.
Dates, venue and getting there
The fair runs from 16 September to 17 September 2026 at ExCeL London, Royal Victoria Dock, London E16 1XL in London. It runs for 2 days, which is short, so deciding which halls to prioritise before arriving makes a difference. London venues are well served by public transport, which is almost always faster than road travel. Hotel prices rise noticeably during major exhibitions, and booking close to the venue rather than in the centre often saves both money and commuting time.
Planning your visit
The practical value is in comparing systems rather than items. Exhibitors are generally willing to discuss integration with existing lines, and technical staff on stands can answer questions about compatibility and consumable costs. For London Packaging Week 2026, that means preparing ahead of the September dates and arriving with a target list of stands.
Language and interpreting support
Business is conducted in English, so translation is rarely the constraint for international visitors. Where local support still helps is in verifying suppliers, arranging inspections and handling logistics after the fair, which are practical rather than linguistic problems. An interpreter already working in London saves further time simply by knowing the venue and how to move around it.
After the fair
After the fair the useful checks are practical. Verify throughput claims against your own materials, confirm consumable pricing in writing, and arrange a pre-shipment inspection for any capital equipment order.
