Yes. On-site parking is available at Park Plaza Westminster Bridge, subject to availability. Parking is charged at £70 per day and spaces cannot be reserved in advance.
Please note that the hotel is within the London Congestion Charge Zone, and any applicable charges are the responsibility of the visitor.
If the hotel’s on-site parking is full, there are several public car parks within walking distance of Park Plaza Westminster Bridge. Availability, pricing and opening hours vary, so we recommend checking directly with the car park before travelling.
Please ensure that you arrive at the AV desk at the back of the theatre 30 minutes before the start of your session. This gives us time to properly set up the microphones for you, ensure we have the correct slides, and introduce you to the moderator.
You should allow a minimum of 15 minutes to get through security and registration.
Yes - students are offered a 75% discount on the current delegate rate. To apply, email a clear photo of your student ID to [email protected] with your request.
Yes. There will be a cloakroom onsite. The location of the cloakroom will be provided in all joining instructions.
A designated Quiet Room will be available immediately next to the exhibition area on the ground floor of the venue, opposite the staff room. This room is non-denominational and available to all for use. Please be respectful of other users.
We recommend staying in the Park Plaza London Westminster Bridge for the best experience. For alternative accommodation, please visit the hotels closest to the venue.

Unfortunately, we are unable to share a list of previous International Energy Week attendees. However, you can view a breakdown of our audience demographics on the International Energy Week website, including information about the sectors, organisations and professional backgrounds represented at the event.
Shifting International Energy Week to March avoids clashes with other major global energy events and key religious holidays, including Eid, Holi, and Chinese New Year, while still taking place ahead of Easter.
As a global gathering, the revised March date ensures that delegates from around the world can participate more easily.
The event remains in Westminster, at the heart of London and just moments from the Houses of Parliament. The new venue maintains the central London location while offering excellent accessibility and transport links for delegates.
International Energy Week 2027 will continue to convene energy CEOs, policymakers, and senior industry leaders to debate the biggest issues shaping the global energy system. Further programme updates will be shared in due course.
