About
EdTech World Forum 2026, billed as an AI in Education Conference, is a London event on educational technology presented under the EdTech Conferences brand as part of the wider Learning Technologies 2026 programme. Its themes include eLearning platforms, large language models, virtual classrooms, gamification and immersive learning through virtual and augmented reality, with speakers drawn from education providers, universities and learning companies. According to the official site, the 2026 edition runs over two days, 16 and 17 November, at the Kensington Conference and Events Centre in London. The organisers cite more than 200 delegates and around 25 speakers. The format combines keynotes and speaker sessions with an EdTech expo where solution providers present their products. The programme gives educators, learning designers and technology teams a practical look at how AI and digital tools are being adopted in teaching and training, along with opportunities to meet vendors and peers. As an AI in education conference in London, it reflects the growing pressure on schools, universities and corporate learning teams to evaluate new technology thoughtfully rather than adopt it by default.

Planning your trip to London
Contains sponsored linksEdTech Conference gathers educators, founders and learning designers in London at the close of November, a fitting setting given the capital's density of universities, libraries and free public museums built on Victorian ideals of mass education. The season is wintry and dark by late afternoon, yet the streets around Covent Garden and Regent Street glow with Christmas illuminations. Delegates with a spare morning will find that many of the city's most instructive institutions charge nothing at the door.
Getting there & around
London is served by several airports beyond Heathrow. Gatwick (LGW) has frequent trains to Victoria, London Bridge and St Pancras taking 30 to 45 minutes; Stansted (STN) connects by rail to Liverpool Street in about 50 minutes; and London City (LCY) sits on the Docklands Light Railway, close to the financial districts. Travellers from Paris, Brussels and Amsterdam can skip flying entirely, as Eurostar services arrive at St Pancras International in the heart of the city.
Skip the taxi queue — pre-book a fixed-price airport transfer with Welcome Pickups. Exploring beyond the city? compare rental cars on Auto Europe.
Staying connected
Public Wi-Fi in London is widespread but fragmented across sign-in portals, which is frustrating between sessions and meetings. A UK eSIM arranged ahead of travel provides steady data from arrival without swapping physical cards. Set up an eSIM with Airalo before you board and you're online the moment you land.
After the sessions
South Kensington museum quarter. The Science Museum, the Natural History Museum and the Victoria and Albert Museum stand side by side on Exhibition Road, all with free general admission. For an education-minded audience, the Science Museum's interactive galleries are a case study in hands-on learning. Choosing one museum and giving it two hours works better than rushing all three.
British Library Treasures Gallery. Beside St Pancras station, the national library displays a free permanent exhibition including Magna Carta, Gutenberg's Bible, Leonardo's notebooks and handwritten Beatles lyrics. The gallery is dimly lit, quiet and rarely crowded, making it a restorative hour after a busy conference day. The building's cafes are popular working spots for researchers and students.
Westminster Abbey. The coronation church since 1066 holds the tombs of monarchs alongside Poets' Corner and memorials to Newton and Darwin. Visits are self-guided with an included multimedia guide and take around 90 minutes. Morning entry slots are calmest. Parliament and Big Ben stand directly opposite, so the exterior sights require no extra travel. Tickets on Tiqets →
Covent Garden and the West End lights. By late November the festive displays are switched on across Covent Garden's piazza, Regent Street, Carnaby Street and Oxford Street. An early evening loop on foot takes about an hour and costs nothing. The area is also the heart of theatreland, so pairing the walk with a show is straightforward; same-day tickets are often available.
Good to know
Which London airport is most convenient?
It depends on the airline and hotel location. Heathrow and London City have the quickest links to central and east London respectively, while Gatwick and Stansted rely on rail journeys of roughly 30 to 50 minutes that are reliable but should be factored into timing.
Is an Oyster card required for public transport?
No. Any contactless bank card or phone wallet can be tapped on the Tube, buses and most rail services, with daily fare capping applied automatically.
What entry paperwork applies to conference visitors?
Short business visits, including attending conferences, are generally covered by standard visitor rules, but many visa-exempt nationalities must hold a UK Electronic Travel Authorisation before boarding. Requirements differ by passport and should be confirmed on the official government site.
