Arts Marketing Association Conference – July 2026

The AMA has over 700 organisation members and we proudly maintain a Service Provider membership. We were sure to join delegates and fellow supplier exhibitors at this year’s conference in Leeds. It’s always a pleasure to catch up with happy customers and make new connections.

Both the AMA and Leeds Playhouse teams looked after us ever so well.

As is often the case at industry conferences that we attend, our table was among the most vibrant, thanks to the array of print displayed – much of it created for attending delegates who swiftly recognised their work! There were even some fruitful conversations with fellow suppliers.

Unsurprisingly, there was much interest in our green credentials, and it was a pleasure to share about our own sustainability journey and how we can work together with marketeers to make meaningful strides toward reducing carbon footprint, not least thanks to our Carbon Balanced Printer certification, by way of the World Land Trust. 💚

The two days were packed with worthwhile panel discussions and speakers who addressed relevant – and sometimes challenging – topics like climate change, authenticity in a changing political landscape, reframing programming, creating cohorts of local voices, revenue driving, artificial intelligence and, of course, audience and visitor development. The conference theme was ‘Together’, which served as a resonating and connecting thread throughout.

This year, we also sponsored the nifty and fun photobooth, a popular feature among enthusiastic delegates for capturing and sharing #AMAConf memories. Remember, photos can still be uploaded here.

It was such a treat to visit West Yorkshire and greet familiar faces and meet new ones, both in the theatre and at an animated evening social event. Our Head of Arts and Culture and Group Communications Manager both returned from two rewarding days with plenty of follow-ups on the to-do list.

Special thanks to the brilliant and unflappable AMA team for organising some glorious weather, complete with sunshine and balmy summery temperatures!
