Experts Live UK
About the event
The UK's largest independent Microsoft community conference.
The record so far
Our first two events
ELUK25 was our first edition, a half day in London in September 2025 with around 100 attendees and 10 speakers. Eight months later, Experts Live UK 2026 welcomed more than 380 attendees and around 50 speakers, with a 4.6★ average rating and an NPS of 76 from the post-event survey. ELUK27 is our third edition, with a bigger expo across two full days and a practitioner-led programme.
What we stand for
The pillars
-
Practitioners first
Sessions focus on what you can use at work, from real deployments and failures to lessons learned. No product pitches from the stage.
-
Independently organised
Community-run and independently organised. Microsoft people speak here; Microsoft does not run it. Sponsors support the event but do not set the programme.
-
Meet the community
Meet speakers, Microsoft MVPs and other attendees in sessions and between them.
The people
Who runs it
A small crew of practitioners who organise the event alongside their day jobs, keeping the programme practical.
Sensible questions
The UK FAQ
Is this an official Microsoft event?
No. Experts Live UK is part of the independent, community-run Experts Live network. Microsoft people speak here, but Microsoft does not set the agenda.
How does it relate to Experts Live Europe?
Same community network, UK edition. Experts Live events run across Europe and beyond; ours is the one you can reach on a day return from most of the UK.
Who is it for?
Engineers and admins who work with endpoint management, security, identity, Microsoft 365, Power Platform and AI.
Why London?
Because it is the easiest place in the UK to reach by rail and air, and the venue sits two minutes from Moorgate. The venue page has the door-to-door times.
