Labour Party Conference 2023: Dates, location and key events

The Labour Party are set to hold their annual conference for 2023 in less than a week, where Keir Starmer is expected to clarify the party’s agenda ahead of the next general election. With a record-breaking turnout expected among members, the four-day event features a jam-packed schedule with speeches on key issues from leading Labour figures.

Last year’s Labour Party Conference took place in the ugly midst of Liz Truss and Kwasi Kwarteng’s mini-budget announcement, which caused a mauling from financial markets and a subsequent shock to the UK’s economy. Now a year on, with a new Prime Minister and a general election looming, members will be hoping the Labour leader can provide a tangible inventory of future policies.

But when is the conference taking place, where will it be held and what are the biggest events not to be missed.
