The move signifies a significant expansion of the Nineteen-run event, reflecting the show's rapid growth and its pivotal role in shaping the future of retail.
With several very successful years at London Olympia, organisers now feel the time has come to expand to a larger venue for the 2025 edition – taking place on 2-3 April.
Event Director, Matt Bradley, commented: “Our decision to move the Retail Technology Show to Excel London is driven by the extraordinary growth and demand we've experienced, and the state-of-the-art facilities available at this venue to enhance the overall event experience. The team are still buzzing from an incredible last event at London Olympia. But it is the right time to take the leap, giving us the right time and space to develop the show and take #RTS2025 to the next level.”
Organisers also cited that Excel will offer more opportunities for prime exhibition locations, greater space for the market-leading conference programme, and improved options for networking and customer experiences.
Nick Coffey, Head of Business Development at Excel London, commented: “We are extremely proud to have been chosen as the new host venue for Retail Technology Show in 2025 and beyond. The team at Nineteen have done an incredible job to grow the event into one of the leading and most recognised in the retail sector, and we’re delighted to be supporting them on this journey and enhancing the event through our world-class facilities, connectivity and dedicated venue team.”
RTS 2025 will take place on 2-3 April 2025 at Excel London.
