Shared Services Forum UK is delighted to announce that its flagship Annual Conference will return to the iconic Emirates Old Trafford in November 2026.
Scheduled for Wednesday 11th and Thursday 12th November, the two-day event promises to bring together shared services professionals from across the UK for a dynamic programme of learning, networking, and forward-thinking discussion.
Following the success of previous conferences, Emirates Old Trafford was a natural choice for its inspiring atmosphere and world-class facilities. The venue has become a favourite among attendees, offering the perfect setting for collaboration and innovation.
While the 2026 theme is already in development, SSF UK is keeping it under wraps until the end of the year — building anticipation for what’s expected to be a bold and timely focus.
“We’re thrilled to be returning to Emirates Old Trafford next year,” said Lynsey Oakes, Director of Operations. “It’s a venue that reflects the energy and ambition of our membership community, and we’re already working on a programme that will challenge, inspire, and connect.”
Members and Collaborators are encouraged to save the date and stay tuned for further announcements, including speaker line-ups, session details, and the big theme reveal.
