18th September 2025 London Wembley

We were excited to be in attendance at the Accessible Events Show on Thursday,18th September 2025. Held at The Drum, Wembley, London, this event was the first-ever show dedicated to accessibility and inclusion in event planning and delivery.

The show was hosted by leading changemakers, Dr Shani Dhanda, Catheine Griyner, and it was a fantastic opportunity to connect with event organisers, agencies, and suppliers who are all working to make events more inclusive.

It was great to see that there are organisations out there who are passionate about creating impactful, accessible events. Some are in the process of building accessibility into their events, and others are just starting to learn on their journey.

Our attendance at the Accessible Events Show reinforced our mission at Access My Events: to make it easier for deaf and disabled people to find and attend events that are accessible, bringing businesses and disabled people together, going with our brand's tagline.

We believe that by working with businesses and event planners, we can champion inclusivity, elevate brands, and connect them with a more diverse audience. The Accessible Events Show was a powerful platform for sharing knowledge and collaborating on solutions that will help to make accessibility an important part of the event planning process, not an after thought.

We left the show feeling good, knowing that there are organisations out there who are committed and are working to create a more accessible and welcoming events for all. We look forward to continuing these important conversations and building partnerships that will help us make a real difference for the deaf and disabled community.
