Delegate tickets are on sale now for Showlight 2025 – the first in-person Showlight since 2017. The quadrennial networking event for lighting practitioners takes place at Le Parc des Expositions et Congrès de Dijon in France on 19-22 May 2025, with Robert Juliat as its headline sponsor.
Tickets are now on sale and can be booked directly from the website. There are three ticket options: Full Delegate, Day Delegate (Papers Only) or Student.
Full Delegate ticket holders have access to the whole event. In addition to the Papers Sessions on all days, this includes daily lunch and coffee/tea breaks; Monday evening’s Welcome Reception; Tuesday evening’s Company-Sponsored Dinners; the new Wednesday afternoon Workshops; and the grand Showlight Conference Dinner.
Day Delegate (Papers Only) tickets give delegates access for one day to attend the Papers Sessions on either Tuesday, Wednesday (including workshops) or Thursday, with lunch, tea and coffee breaks included.
Student ticket holders, like Full Delegates, will have access on all days to the Papers Presentations, Workshops, Welcome Reception, Company Dinners, Conference Dinner and daily tea and coffee breaks and lunch.
All ticket holders will have full admission to the exhibition of major lighting equipment manufacturers and service providers, open between Papers Sessions.
Showlight offers the opportunity for a number of students and recent graduates of lighting courses to attend Showlight 2025 free of charge, with places sponsored by the exhibitors. In return for sponsored attendance, each student is required to make themselves available to help their exhibitor with its stand fit-up on Monday 19 May and the de-rig on Thursday 22 May. For more information and to submit an application for one of these free tickets, fill in the selection form on the Showlight website.
Headline sponsor Robert Juliat has worked with Showlight to secure a number of preferential rates with hotels in the Accor group, a list of which can be found on the Showlight website. Tick the ‘Special Rates/Tarifs Spéciaux’ box showing ‘SHOWLIGHT 2025’ to secure this rate. Rooms are on a first-come, first-served basis, after which the prices will revert to the standard rate.
More information on all aspects of Showlight 2025 will be released over the coming months, including news on speakers and Papers topics, and the new programme of workshops.
