About us

Excel London is the UK capital’s international convention and exhibition centre, located in the historic London Royal Docks. With the opening of our new ICC Expansion, we are now the largest fully integrated conference & exhibition centre in Europe. Excel’s venue spaces can host a wide range of events from international association meetings and product launches to corporate brand experiences, taking advantage of the purpose-built conference facilities or blank canvas event halls, all seamlessly integrated. With a wide range of transport links, getting to Excel couldn’t be easier! The location of our centre ensures delegates arrive quickly and efficiently from other cities within the UK as well as international destinations. London City Airport is on our doorstep with onsite rail stations linking to the high speed Elizabeth line, as well as London’s overground and underground network for access to the Eurostar and London’s major airports, and making travel within the city quick and efficient. As an example, Heathrow Airport is a 43 minute direct train from Excel London's station Custom House, and city centre destinations like Liverpool Street, Tottenham Court Road, and Paddington are between 10-20 minutes away via train. Within walking distance of Excel campus, there’s 13 hotels offering over 2,800 bedrooms. For larger delegations, there’s 177,000 hotel rooms in the City, which can meet all accommodation requirements and budgets. The Excel team are experienced in preparing international bids and we work closely with London’s CVB and London & Partners to ensure you take full advantage of everything London has to offer, including royal parks, theatres, historic buildings, restaurants & bars, and shopping centres.
