The Living Streets organisation is holding the 2026 UK Walking Summit at St George's Hall, Liverpool on Wednesday 25 March 2026.

They describe the themes of the event as follows:-

"The changes we make to our streets today will be with us for decades. The Summit will focus on how we plan today for streets that are fit for the future.

We will discuss how to ensure that people walking benefit from emerging technologies which are forging new ways for people to move around towns and cities. We'll be considering how we put pedestrians first and create smarter streets for all.

Showcasing work in the region which is putting walkers at the heart of change, we'll also hear from trailblazers who are looking to make walking safer and easier as our streets change and evolve".
