The Campaign Fringe at Labour Conference 2025
What actually works in campaigning right now?
How are progressive campaigns reaching the people that matter, breaking through the noise, and building power in a shifting political landscape?
The Campaign Fringe is a one-day exhibition and event space for campaigners who want to get serious about strategy, learn from what others are trying, and avoid reinventing the wheel. This year, we are at Camp and Furnace in Liverpool (10-minute walk from Labour Conference). Just like last year, you do not need a conference pass to access the fringe.
We’re bringing together some of the most active and inventive groups in UK campaigning. From digital agencies like 89up and The Small Axe, to tech builders like Newspeak House and Poteris, to organisers working directly against the far right, like Hope Not Hate - they’ll be sharing what they’re testing on the ground and what they’re learning along the way.
You’ll find campaign showcases, practical sessions, and time to connect with the people facing the same challenges that you are. Whether you're a professional campaigner or just part time; interested in digital or more focussed on the field; all about messaging or serious about strategy - this will be a space to learn something new and meet people who get it.
Most importantly, you’ll leave with ideas, contacts and tactics that you can actually use.
