Service
From the HVB Forum to the Bayerischer Hof.
DLD Munich runs from 14 to 16 January 2027 at the HVB Forum on Kardinal-Faulhaber-Straße, the converted bank atrium that has hosted the conference each January since 2005 — the week before Davos, with many speakers continuing on to the Alps. Three days of policy, business, and creative-industry keynotes across the main stage and the side panels, with the partner sessions running at the adjacent venues across the Altstadt. The evening programme moves through the Altstadt — formal dinners at the Bayerischer Hof on Promenadeplatz, partner receptions at the Mandarin Oriental on Neuturmstraße, and late-night gatherings at the bar venues around Maximilianstraße. On-location makeup and hairstyling delivered to the Bayerischer Hof, the Mandarin Oriental, the Charles Hotel near the Königsplatz, and the boutique hotels of Altstadt, with the kit and styling station brought on-site. Three days means three mornings and at least two formal evenings, so the practical arrangement is a standing early call and a shorter reset before dinner.
From the Kongresszentrum to the Promenade.
The 57th World Economic Forum runs from 18 to 22 January 2027, with the formal programme staged at the Kongresszentrum and a parallel circuit of bilateral receptions, dinners, and partner sessions along the Promenade. On-site service at the hotels of the Promenade (the Belvédère, the Seehof, the Steigenberger Grandhotel) and at private chalets and conference apartments above the town. One speaker per call, with full kit and styling station brought on-site. Five days at altitude, with snow glare through the middle of the day and formal dinners after dark, is the hardest finish on this calendar to hold, and the week is planned as a sequence rather than as five separate mornings.
From Stockholmsmässan to Östermalm.
Techarena runs from 16 to 17 February 2027 at Stockholmsmässan in Älvsjö, the southern convention complex that hosts Scandinavia's largest startup and scaleup gathering across the main and east halls — founder keynotes, investor panels, the female-founder track, and the Nordic VC partner installations. Evenings run through the centre — investor dinners at the Grand Hôtel on Södra Blasieholmshamnen, partner receptions at the Berns Hotel on Berzelii Park, and late-night founder gatherings through Östermalm and Södermalm. On-location makeup and hairstyling delivered to the Grand Hôtel, the Berns, the Ett Hem on Sköldungagatan, and the boutique hotels of Östermalm and Norrmalm, with the kit and styling station brought on-site. February in Stockholm gives almost no working daylight, so the finish is specified for hall and stage light from the first call rather than corrected for it afterwards.
From Fira Gran Via to the Eixample.
Mobile World Congress runs from 1 to 4 March 2027 at Fira Gran Via in L'Hospitalet, the southern Fira complex that hosts the world's largest telecoms gathering across all eight halls — mainstage keynotes, the operator and device-maker pavilions, the 4YFN startup hall, and the GSMA Women4Tech programme. What happens once the halls close is spread across the city — operator dinners at the Mandarin Oriental on Passeig de Gràcia, partner receptions at the Hotel Casa Fuster, and late-night sponsor parties at the seafront venues of Port Olímpic and the Born. On-location makeup and hairstyling delivered to the Hotel Arts on the seafront, the Mandarin Oriental, the W Barcelona at the harbour, and the boutique hotels of the Eixample and the Gothic Quarter, with the kit and styling station brought on-site. Across four days on the same stages the aim is continuity: one look carried consistently through the week, so the run reads as a single appearance rather than four unrelated ones.
From the Tivoli Congress Centre to the harbour.
The Summit Copenhagen runs as a single day on 25 March 2027 at the Tivoli Hotel and Congress Centre on Arni Magnussons Gade, organised jointly by the Confederation of Industry Foundation and Dansk Industri as a senior Nordic leadership forum. The day runs CEO-level keynotes through the morning, board-level panels through the afternoon, and closes with a formal dinner at one of the central Copenhagen institutional venues. On-location makeup and hairstyling delivered to the Tivoli Hotel, the Nimb on Bernstorffsgade, the d'Angleterre on Kongens Nytorv, and the boutique hotels of central Copenhagen, with the kit and styling station brought on-site. A single-day forum leaves no second call to correct anything, so the morning is booked with the closing dinner already accounted for.
From Hamburg Messe to the Reeperbahn.
OMR Festival runs from 4 to 5 May 2027 at Hamburg Messe und Congress on Lagerstraße, the central convention complex that hosts the festival across all six halls for two days of digital marketing, advertising tech, and creator-economy programming — the mainstage keynotes, the brand sessions, the AI and commerce tracks, and the creator-side stages. The festival's own evening programme takes over the city — brand dinners at the Fairmont Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten on the Inner Alster, partner receptions at The Fontenay on Fontenay, and late-night festival parties at the warehouse venues of the harbour and the bar circuit of the Schanze and the Reeperbahn. On-location makeup and hairstyling delivered to the Vier Jahreszeiten, The Fontenay, the Tortue Hamburg on Stadthausbrücke, and the boutique hotels of the Neustadt and the harbour quarter, with the kit and styling station brought on-site. OMR sits closer to a festival than to a conference, and the evening register is genuinely different from the mainstage one, so the day is normally prepared as two looks rather than one held over.
From the RAI to the canal belt.
Money 20/20 Europe runs from 2 to 4 June 2026 at the RAI Amsterdam, the purpose-built convention complex south of the centre that takes over six halls for the conference week. The off-site programme runs through the historic canal belt — partner dinners, fintech-firm receptions, and bilateral meetings at the Waldorf Astoria on Herengracht, the Conservatorium near the Rijksmuseum, and the boutique hotels along the Pulitzer and Andaz canal stretches. On-location makeup and hairstyling delivered to the hotel suite or the venue green room, with the kit and styling station brought on-site. The fireside formats the conference is built around put the camera far closer than a main stage does, and the finish is specified for that rather than for the room.
From La Nave to Salamanca.
South Summit runs from 3 to 5 June 2026 at La Nave in Villaverde, the converted slaughterhouse complex south of the centre that hosts the conference week across its converted halls and outdoor pavilions. The off-site programme runs through the central neighbourhoods — investor breakfasts and partner dinners in Salamanca, founder receptions through Chueca and Malasaña, and late-night sponsor parties at the rooftop venues along Gran Vía. On-location makeup and hairstyling delivered to the Four Seasons on Plaza de Canalejas, the Rosewood Villa Magna on Paseo de la Castellana, and the boutique hotels of Las Letras and Salamanca, with the kit and styling station brought on-site. Madrid in June is hot and La Nave is a converted industrial hall, so the finish is built to survive a full day of it rather than to photograph well for the first hour.
From Porte de Versailles to the rive droite.
VivaTech runs from 17 to 20 June 2026 at the Paris Expo Porte de Versailles, the southern convention complex that takes over Pavilions 1, 2, and 3 for the conference week — keynote stages, country pavilions, and the LVMH and CAC 40 partner installations. The evening programme belongs to the brands, and it runs on the right bank — brand dinners and partner receptions at the Bristol, the Plaza Athénée, and the Costes group hotels around the 8th, late-night founder parties through the Marais and Pigalle. On-location makeup and hairstyling delivered to the Bristol on Faubourg Saint-Honoré, the Plaza Athénée on avenue Montaigne, the Costes on rue Saint-Honoré, and the boutique hotels of the 1st and 8th arrondissements, with the kit and styling station brought on-site. Speakers appearing on a partner or brand pavilion stage are usually working to that brand's own visual register, which is worth settling at the consultation rather than on the morning.
From the Palais to the Croisette.
The 73rd Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity runs from 22 to 26 June 2026 at the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès, the modernist red-carpeted complex anchoring the eastern end of the Croisette. The off-site programme runs the full length of the seafront — awards galas at the Palais, agency cabanas along the beach, yacht receptions at the Vieux Port directly opposite, and private villa parties in the hills above the town. On-location makeup and hairstyling delivered to the Croisette hotels (the Carlton, the Martinez, the Majestic), to villas in Super Cannes and Le Cannet, and to yachts at their moorings — with the kit and styling station brought on-site. A Cannes Lions day routinely runs a daytime panel and an evening gala, and the two are prepared as separate looks rather than one held over.
From Messe Berlin to Mitte.
GITEX Europe runs from 30 June to 1 July 2026 at Messe Berlin under the Funkturm, the second European edition of the GITEX series after its Dubai flagship. The conference takes over the south halls of the Messe complex for keynote stages, the AI and deep-tech pavilions, and the partner installations of the major European tech firms. The off-site programme runs through Mitte — partner dinners at the Hotel Adlon on Pariser Platz, founder receptions at the Soho House on Torstraße, and late-night sponsor parties at the rooftop venues along the Spree. On-location makeup and hairstyling delivered to the Adlon, the Regent on Charlottenstraße, the Soho House, and the boutique hotels of Mitte and Charlottenburg, with the kit and styling station brought on-site. Two days at the end of June under the Messe roof ask for a lighter weight of product than the same stage would in winter.
From Messukeskus to the Esplanadi.
Nordic Business Forum runs from 16 to 17 September 2026 at Messukeskus, the central Helsinki convention complex that hosts the conference across its main and east halls for two days of CEO-level keynotes, board panels, and partner forums. The off-site programme runs through the Esplanadi quarter — leadership dinners at the Hotel Kämp on Pohjoisesplanadi, board receptions at the Hotel Haven by the harbour, and formal partner gatherings at the National Library and the Old Student House. On-location makeup and hairstyling delivered to the Kämp, the Haven, the Lilla Roberts on Pieni Roobertinkatu, and the boutique hotels of the design district, with the kit and styling station brought on-site. The room is board-level and the register that suits it is plain rather than bright: camera-correct at close range, not stage-heavy.
From Koelnmesse to the Rhine.
DMEXCO runs from 23 to 24 September 2026 at Koelnmesse on the right bank of the Rhine, the conference taking over Halls 7 and 8 for two days of digital marketing and advertising tech — mainstage keynotes, brand-side sessions, the AI and creator tracks, and the agency partner pavilions. Evenings run down to the river and back — brand dinners at the Excelsior Hotel Ernst by the Dom, partner receptions at the Hotel Mondial am Dom, and late-night parties through the Belgian Quarter. On-location makeup and hairstyling delivered to the Excelsior, the Mondial, the Wasserturm Hotel on Kaygasse, and the boutique hotels of Altstadt and the Belgian Quarter, with the kit and styling station brought on-site. The gap between the last afternoon session and the evening brand dinners is short, so a reset between the two is usually booked with the day.
From the ICM to the Wiesn.
Bits & Pretzels runs from 28 to 30 September 2026 at the ICM Internationales Congress Center München next to the Messe complex, with the conference taking over the main and east halls for three days of founder keynotes, investor panels, and the unicorn-track sessions. The final evening moves to the Oktoberfest tents on the Theresienwiese — the festival's closing tradition, with the audience often staying on in dirndls for an additional day. On-location makeup and hairstyling delivered to the Bayerischer Hof on Promenadeplatz, the Mandarin Oriental on Neuturmstraße, the Charles Hotel near the Königsplatz, and the boutique hotels of Altstadt and Maxvorstadt, with the kit and styling station brought on-site. The Wiesn evening is not the conference day in different clothes, and it is prepared as its own look.
From Fira Gran Via to the Saló de Cent.
Smart City Expo World Congress runs from 3 to 5 November 2026 at Fira Gran Via in L'Hospitalet, the southern Fira complex that hosts the conference across Halls 1, 2, and 3 for three days of urban-policy keynotes, mayoral panels, and the government and municipal partner pavilions. The institutional evening programme runs through the old town and the Eixample — partner dinners at the Hotel Casa Fuster on Passeig de Gràcia, formal receptions at the Saló de Cent in the Ajuntament, and late-night sponsor gatherings through the Eixample and the Born. On-location makeup and hairstyling delivered to the Hotel Arts on the seafront, the Mandarin Oriental on Passeig de Gràcia, the Hotel Casa Fuster, and the boutique hotels of the Eixample and the Gothic Quarter, with the kit and styling station brought on-site. This is an institutional audience rather than a commercial one, and the finish is pitched accordingly: unremarkable in the room, correct on camera.
From the Altice Arena to Chiado.
Web Summit runs from 9 to 12 November 2026 at the Altice Arena and the adjacent FIL pavilions in Parque das Nações, the eastern riverside complex that hosts the conference across its main arena and four exhibition halls. The mainstage hosts the keynote sessions, with the founder showcases, deep-tech track, and Women in Tech programme running in parallel across the partner pavilions. The off-site programme runs through central Lisbon — investor dinners at the Bairro do Avillez in Chiado, partner receptions at the Pestana Palace and the Ritz Four Seasons, and late-night founder parties through Bairro Alto and Príncipe Real. On-location makeup and hairstyling delivered to the Ritz Four Seasons on Rua Rodrigo da Fonseca, the Tivoli Avenida Liberdade, the Bairro Alto Hotel, and the boutique hotels of Chiado and Príncipe Real, with the kit and styling station brought on-site. Arena lighting is flatter and further away than a panel room's, and the finish is weighted for it, which is a different specification from the same speaker's panel appearances the same week.
From Messukeskus to the design district.
Slush runs from 19 to 20 November 2026 at Messukeskus Helsinki Expo and Convention Centre, the conference taking over the main hall for the founder mainstage and the side halls for the investor matchmaking and Women in Tech programme — staged with the signature black-out lighting and stage design that define the event. Evenings run very late across the centre — investor receptions at the Hotel Kämp on Pohjoisesplanadi, founder dinners at the Lilla Roberts in the design district, and late-night sponsor parties at the harbour venues and the converted-warehouse clubs of Kallio. On-location makeup and hairstyling delivered to the Kämp, the Lilla Roberts, the Hotel St. George on Yrjönkatu, and the boutique hotels of the design district and Punavuori, with the kit and styling station brought on-site. The black-out staging is the hardest lighting on this calendar to read against, and the finish is built for it specifically.
From Porte de Versailles to the Crillon.
Trustech runs from 1 to 3 December 2026 at the Paris Expo Porte de Versailles, the southern convention complex hosting the conference across Pavilion 4 for three days of payments, identification, and security technologies — mainstage keynotes, fintech panels, the biometric and digital-identity tracks, and the bank partner pavilions. The off-site programme runs across the right bank — fintech dinners at the Bristol on Faubourg Saint-Honoré, partner receptions at the Hôtel de Crillon on Place de la Concorde, and late-night gatherings at the bar venues of the 1st and 2nd arrondissements. On-location makeup and hairstyling delivered to the Bristol, the Crillon, the Costes on rue Saint-Honoré, and the boutique hotels of the 1st and 8th arrondissements, with the kit and styling station brought on-site. December in Paris puts the whole day indoors, under pavilion light in the afternoon and restaurant light in the evening, and the two want different things from a finish.
