TUC Congress rescheduled for 18-20 October 2022

Congress will now run for three full days, from Tuesday 18 to Thursday 20 October, in Brighton.

The General Council has decided to reschedule Congress 2022, following its decision to postpone the original dates. We hope the event will be of a similar size and profile, with lively debates, external speakers, a vibrant fringe and exhibitions.

Congress sessions will be as follows:

Tuesday 9.30am -12.45pm | 2.15pm - 5.30pm
Wednesday 9.30am-12.45pm | 2.15pm–5.30pm
Thursday 9.30am–12.45pm | 2.15pm - conclusion of business (4pm at the latest).

If you have any question email alerts@tuc.org.uk.

Thank you for your patience while we work through the operational details for rescheduling Congress.
