EPIC Conference 2026
The 59th EPIC Event was another roaring success, with its particularly relevant theme of “Feeding the Nation – Our Role Today, Our Reputation Tomorrow”
The 2026 event was once again held at the famous Celtic Manor, the home of EPIC, on 1st and 2nd November 2026. Planning is now underway for our landmark 60th Anniversary event 7th and 8th November 2027, and we’re aiming to make it our biggest and best yet.

I had an absolutely fantastic time at the EPIC Conference and am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to attend through the Young Poultry Person Initiative.
As someone training to become a poultry vet, it was invaluable to meet people from across the industry, gain new insights and make connections that will help shape my future career. I came away having learnt so much and feeling even more enthusiastic about my future in the poultry sector.
I thought the line-up was outstanding, as was the organisation. I will definitely be diarising to join again if I may, so please do include me in the marketing material.
Kind regards,
