Trio of seminar theatres at The Fire Safety Event

The Fire Safety Event last ran in 2019. The show was necessarily postponed in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Now, it’s all set to be the largest trade show to run in the fire sector with more than 120 exhibitors already booked and announced.

Dedicated to supporting industry practitioners, professionals and organisations in achieving and maintaining the very highest standards of fire safety management, The Fire Safety Event showcases the latest products, technology and solutions. It’s the perfect opportunity for visitors to gain direct insight into improving business protection, fire safety resilience and business continuity.

Unmissable content

Education is at the very heart of The Fire Safety Event. The show boasts three industry-led theatres and offers 45-plus hours of free-to-attend, Continuing Professional Development-accredited content. Delegates are afforded direct insight into how they can maintain, improve and continually champion fire safety.

Sponsored by Advanced, The Fire Safety Theatre covers challenging and critical topics surrounding fire safety management. Discussion and debate-driven, the insightful seminar sessions will include a high-profile and detailed look at the new Fire Safety Act (delivered by a representative from the Home Office), a mock trial based on a real fire safety prosecution (orchestrated by Pinsent Masons LLP) and a round table discussion on the implications of the proposed Building Safety Bill with insight from leading industry bodies including the Fire Protection Association, the Fire Sector Federation and the Association for Specialist Fire Protection (ASFP).

Content in The Tall Buildings Theatre (sponsored in 2021 by Safety Chair) is curated by the ASFP and ideal for anyone who has responsibility for managing fire safety in tall and high-rise buildings. Improve your knowledge base, join discussions and offer your views in thought-provoking debates that will help you to improve your approach towards passive fire protection. Seminars on offer are set to focus on fire safety legislation post-Grenfell, Best Practice for compartmentation and firestopping, managing high-rise fire safety, the Building Safety Bill, the impact of modern methods of construction on building fire safety and more.
