LiGHT 25 - the UK’s only trade show dedicated to high-end lighting specification, returns to the Business Design Centre, Islington, London on the 19th and 20th of November 2025, promising its biggest and most inspiring edition yet.

Following a record-breaking 2024 event that welcomed over 5,500 visitors, this year’s show continues to evolve with a dynamic new addition to the layout. To reflect the scale and scope of the lighting industry today, LiGHT 25 will be divided into three distinct zones, helping visitors easily explore the vast range of brands, technologies, and innovations on display.

Architectural Zone – bringing together high-end international brands showcasing lighting solutions tailored for commercial, hospitality, architectural and beyond.

Decorative Zone – where you’ll find the very best in statement and designer lighting.

Technical Zone – a hub of innovation, featuring advanced control systems, emergency lighting, components, lamps, and the mechanical and technical gear that underpins great lighting design.

LiGHT Expo

LiGHT 25 is about far more than just product displays. Alongside hundreds of architectural, decorative, and technical lighting brands, attendees can enjoy an array of engaging content, including the return of the dedicated two-day [d]arc thoughts talks programme, which, for another year running, is in collaboration with Lutron. This two-day content stream features influential voices and thought-provoking discussions tackling the most pressing issues in lighting, technology, and design.

LiGHT Expo

The exhibition offers unrivalled opportunities for networking, branding, and social engagement. Visitors can connect with exhibitors directly on their stands, enjoy late-night welcome drinks on the opening evening, and take part in the much-loved LiGHT Lunch on day two. More informal catchups can happen over coffee at Jacks, the on-site gallery-level café, or in the LiGHT WORK lounge — a calm, dedicated space designed for deeper conversations and collaborative meetings.

Helen Ankers, Managing Editor at [d]arc media, said: “We are delighted to bring the lighting and design communities together for the most anticipated UK event in the lighting industry for the fourth year running. LiGHT 25 is not just for lighting designers - we value bringing together inspiring leaders and passionate people to share ideas and solutions to grow the future of the entire industry. A common misconception is that trade shows dedicated to lighting specification are just for lighting specialists, yet by bringing together architects, interior designers and other professionals in the community, with innovative brands and suppliers, LiGHT 25 is the perfect opportunity to network and seek inspiration, whatever role you play in a project.”

Completely free to attend, LiGHT 25 continues to set the standard for lighting exhibitions in the UK.
