Testing Peers Conference

12 MARCH 2026

Thats right time for the 3rd Testing Peers Conference #PeersCon26.

After the success of the first couple of Testing Peers Conferences in 2024, we have decided to do it again, this time bigger and better we’re hoping to host 300 people this time.

We’re staying in Nottingham, UK, with the event running from 9am-5pm on 12 March 2026. Doors at 8:30am and a bar after the event. Again this year it will be a not for profit, low budget, slightly punk and very much peer focused, friendly testing conference.

Like the Testing Peers podcast, we will focus on leadership, quality and testing. It’s going to be run by the community for the community and will welcome anyone – from people new to testing and wanting to get into the field, Development, Product, Delivery or even CEO’s. 

Our aim is a low-cost event with a couple of tracks, largely funded through sponsorship. We’ll release tickets in two rounds, the early bird tickets and standard tickets. Cost TBC and tickets due to go on sale early Summer 2025.

To be upfront we don’t commit to paying speakers for this event. We appreciate this isn’t ideal, but we aim to be a low-cost event with few sponsors. However last year we were able to give the speakers a fee or donation to a charity of their choice of £200.

money we don’t spend on the event will go to sponsoring people to attend other great events, Future TestingPeers conferences, Speakers or to charities nominated by speakers. Above all else we are not looking to profit from this and just wish to give back to the community
