It is the first major live event in the construction industry for two years with over 300 exhibitors, bringing together the whole industry across three days.
Each day of the show will have a topical theme, with day one focusing on sustainability, day two on diversity, equality and inclusion in construction, and day three on the big issues around quality, social value and building safety.
