Professional Beauty and Hairdressers Journal International will host three Regional Growth Summits in Glasgow, Birmingham, and Leeds between April and June 2026. These events aim to foster business expansion and strategic collaborations for salon and barbershop owners.
The Glasgow summit is scheduled for April 27 at The Briggait, followed by the Birmingham event on May 11 at Eastside Rooms. The series concludes with the Leeds summit on June 8 at the Royal Armouries Museum. Registration for these events is now open.
These regional gatherings follow the inaugural Salon Growth Summit held in London on March 1–2, 2026. They are designed to provide actionable advice on improving profitability, marketing, and team management. Attendees can anticipate business education sessions, networking opportunities with peers and industry leaders, and exposure to new brands and potential partnerships.
Beyond these new summits, the Professional Beauty Group also organises the flagship Professional Beauty London event on October 4–5, co-located with the World Spa & Wellness Convention and alongside the hair show Salon International. This combined event is projected to attract over 45,000 attendees.
The focus on regional expansion for business support highlights a potential shift in how industry events cater to a dispersed client base. While the London event offers a large-scale industry convergence, these smaller, targeted summits acknowledge the specific needs and accessibility challenges faced by businesses outside the capital.
