Time is running out to buy tickets for the AI Creative Summit 2026 on Wednesday (11 November) at BFI Southbank, London.
The event is close to selling out, with a limited number of tickets left to buy for £455 (+VAT) each.
The AI Creative Summit 2026 is the fourth iteration of the event, which is brought to you by Broadcast and Broadcast Tech. This year, for the first time, it will take over the entirety of the BFI Southbank.
The scale and ambition of the event has been ramped up off the back of significant demand and the summit will feature three content streams, allowing delegates to select the sessions they deem most relevant.
AI Creative Summit director Charlotte Wheeler said: “This year’s summit will go deeper, showcase more groundbreaking work, and create more meaningful connections across the creative community. It’s no longer just a conference—it’s a destination for anyone serious about the future of AI in creativity.”
The full programme is available to view here and features actress Alice Krige (Chariots of Fire, Star Trek: First Contact) and director Andy De Emmony, who is currently directing Harlan Coben’s The Woods for Netflix in 2027, discuss how to protect human performance in the age of AI.
There is a case study on Non Player Combat – the world’s first AI-generated reality series where unscripted, autonomous characters drive the plot – and Jonathan Laramy, the creative behind AI-generated time-traveller format Chloe Vs History, will discuss the technology’s potential in children’s and educational content.
Meanwhile, a session on AI animation will see filmmakers Martin Gent of Buska Video and Jimmy Woolley of 404 Films outline how they are charting a course through an animation sector that is being rapidly disrupted by the technology.
The summit will also hear from top UK VFX studios on how they are adapting at a time when AI is rapidly changing the creative possibilities and costs of visual effects. Among the speakers are Framestore’s creative director for AI Theo Jones, Outpost VFX CEO Duncan McWilliam and nmatic.ai head of AI Carl Lyttle.
