HIX 2026: Changes
This year, we’re embracing ‘Changes’.
As we move to our exciting new home at Excel London – a hyper-connected, purpose-built Docklands blank canvas ready for bold ideas and fresh perspectives – we’re also thrilled to share that the European AHEAD Awards will join us, adding even more energy and prestige to this year’s event.
With the theme writing itself, we’re reflecting on change through the lens of design, hospitality and travel. We’re exploring what it means to exchange one thing for another. To evolve. To rethink. To become different.
From the call of “All Change!” – pause, step off, reflect, and continue your journey – to Bowie’s timeless creative mantra, “Ch-Ch Changes. Turn and face the strange.”
For 2026, the tide moves in a new direction.
