Digital Construction Week
The UK's largest built environment technology event—held annually in London with 9,000+ attendees, 150+ exhibitors, and 230+ sessions spanning AI, BIM, digital twins, and construction innovation.
Definition
Digital Construction Week (DCW) is the UK's premier event for built environment technology, held June 3-4, 2026 at ExCeL London. With 9,000+ attendees, 150+ exhibitors, and 230+ sessions, DCW provides the most comprehensive snapshot of digital innovation in the UK and European construction sector. Free tickets are available alongside paid premium access, making it the most broadly attended construction technology event in Europe. DCW 2026 programming covers AI, digital twins, BIM coordination, smart buildings, construction robotics, offsite manufacturing, data and analytics, and sustainability technology. The conference serves practitioners across the full AEC spectrum and the format combines conference sessions with an exhibition floor where established platforms and emerging startups demonstrate live capabilities. For UK and European AEC firms, DCW is essential for understanding technology adoption trends specific to UK markets—including Building Safety Act Golden Thread requirements and RIBA Plan of Work integration. Digital Construction Week 2027 is anticipated in summer 2027 at ExCeL London.
