Are you ready? Because registration is now open for our biggest event of the year, Big Local Connects, is back and better than ever!

Open to all 150 Big Local areas, join us for two days jam-packed with celebrations, inspiration, and lots of chances to discover new skills.

We're working on an exciting programme of sessions and workshops for you, all linked to our themes of environment, economy, society, power and planning for the future.

Look out for details of other ways you can get involved coming soon, alongside announcements about our brilliant keynote speakers, who will be sharing their experiences of making change happen in their Big Local areas.

New for this year will be the 'Talking Tent' space, where you can meet other Big Local residents to chat about a wide range of issues such as building strong partnerships, climate change and community engagement.

There will also be plenty of time to relax in our wellness space, get the latest news in the Extra Local newspaper, enjoy delicious food and explore the Ideas Hub.

Head to the Eventbrite page to sign up for your ticket now!
