The team behind The Glamping Show, the leading trade event for the outdoor hospitality and luxury camping sector, has announced the launch of a new one-day conference for 2026: The Glamping Show European Forum.
The European Forum will move to different locations across the continent each year, making it easier for regional operators and aspiring glamping entrepreneurs to access expert insight, best-practice guidance and face-to-face networking opportunities.
The event will offer a focused and practical conference programme tailored to those looking to set up or already operating glamping sites within Europe.
The first edition of The Glamping Show European Forum will take place on 18 March 2026 in Lisbon, Portugal at the Lumen Hotel, supported by Glamping Revolution, one of the country’s leading manufacturers and suppliers of glamping structures and a respected operator in the Portuguese market.
Delegates can expect a mix of regional-focused presentations, market outlook sessions, practical advice, and product showcases, alongside dedicated networking time with suppliers and industry professionals.
The format has been designed to provide concentrated value in a single day, allowing attendees to learn, connect and make informed decisions with minimal time away from their businesses.
Karen Cooke, Managing Director of Swan Events, commented on the new launch:
“We have long looked for a location to hold a European event and have come to the conclusion that an affordable, fun convening that we can move around Europe will be more practical and focused for people to attend. By taking the Forum to different regions, we can meet operators where they are and support the growth of glamping across the continent.”
