What makes Lifecycle unmissable?

  • “
    The vibe at Lifecycle is brilliant.
    It's way less corporate than a lot of other events. It feels like everyone's a team. Everyone's really supportive about what's happening in each other's businesses, and it just feels like a coming together of a lot of like minded folk. It's very fun.

    — Finisterre

  • “

    Lifecycle is very open, it’s very community oriented.
    People are encouraged to participate and talk to each other, to network. The roundtables are a great way to actually do that and you hear real life examples.

    — The North Face

  • “

    It's a really nice culmination of different marketers coming together to work towards a very common goal: we want our customers to have the best experience.

    — Osprey London

  • “

    It's been a great day. It's always really interesting to meet so many like minded people going through the same sort of experiences and living through the same challenges that you are. I always find that there's a real sense of camaraderie and togetherness in it.

Retail’s Future Meets Retail’s Past

Lifecycle25 will take place at London’s iconic Tobacco Dock.

Built in 1812 as a hub for precious cargo, transformed into a bustling shopping centre in the 1980s, and reborn in 2012 as an events destination, this Grade I listed venue still bears signs of its retail history — right down to the glass storefronts and signage. What better location to explore retail’s future than one steeped in its past?

Tobacco Dock
Wapping Ln, London E1W 2SF
