Top Tips for UKREiiF

Attending UKREiiF is an exciting opportunity to network, learn, and engage with key players in the real estate and infrastructure sectors—but preparation is key to making the most of your experience. We’ve prepared a quick list of our top tips for a successful event.

One of the first things to do in the lead up to the week is to familiarise yourself with the event layout. Grab a floorplan to locate the stages, zones and meeting areas. Knowing where you're meant to be (and how to get there quickly) will save you time and reduce the stress of navigating a busy venue.

Speaking of time—keep an eye on it. It's easy to lose track when you're caught up in inspiring discussions and spontaneous networking, but try to build in some breathing room between sessions or meetings. That said, don’t over-pack your schedule. UKREiiF thrives on impromptu encounters and conversations, so leave space in your diary to explore organically. You’ll often find that the most valuable connections happen in those unscheduled moments between talks or over a coffee.

Lastly, dress smartly but comfortably—especially when it comes to footwear. Avoid the mistake of breaking in a new pair of shoes during a multi-day event. A trusted, worn-in pair will keep you moving pain-free across the venue. And while the event might be buzzing indoors, remember it takes place in the UK… so yes, that means unpredictable weather. Pack a coat and an umbrella—you’ll thank yourself when the skies inevitably change their mind. Preparedness goes a long way in making your UKREiiF experience smooth and enjoyable.
