RSGB Convention

Save the date for the 2024 RSGB Convention!

11 to 13 October

Kents Hill Park, Milton Keynes 

What would YOU like to see at the Convention?

This year we’re offering everyone the opportunity to propose a presentation, a topic, a practical session or a project to share.

Are you involved in some new research? Have you discovered something new in amateur radio that you’re keen to share? Are you part of an interesting project that will take amateur radio to new audiences? Have you helped to make amateur radio more accessible to people with different abilities?

If you’d like to offer a presentation on these or any other topics, please send your proposal to us.

If you’ve heard about something new or would like to learn more about your favourite amateur radio activity, let us know and we’ll try to find an expert to share their knowledge during the weekend or even lead a workshop.

Make it YOUR event

As part of the RSGB’s strategy, we want to ensure that this prestigious annual event not only meets the needs of our members, but also helps every radio amateur to share their love of the hobby with others.

The deadline for proposals is Wednesday 3 July so get your ideas in as soon as possible. Email convention@rsgb.org.uk and make sure you put ‘Convention proposal’ and the topic in the email title.

Be inspired…

The RSGB 2023 Convention had a packed programme of the very best amateur radio lectures from around the world. With lecture streams, forums, special interest groups, presentations, a Buildathon, stands and social spaces, there was something for everyone.

Hundreds joined us in person, and radio amateurs from around the world watched the livestream which featured 12 expert presentations, special interviews and additional content.

Head to our YouTube channel to watch selected presentations from the event, ranging from VHF airborne radar and sources of RF interference to an update on 23cms and taking amateur radio into schools.

Interviews

We spoke to RSGB President John McCullagh MBE, GI4BWM and IRTS President Enda Broderick, EI2II about their views on the opportunities, challenges and great things happening in amateur radio at the moment. Click on the image below to play the video…
