    About 55-65 minutes, then a 10 minute walk. Trains are less frequent than on the Heathrow and Gatwick routes, so check timings.

    Weather

    Mid-to-late October in London is cool, breezy and changeable. Typical daytime highs sit around 14-16C (57-61F) with night-time lows near 8-10C (46-50F), and October is one of the wetter months, with roughly 55-60 mm of rain spread across 10-12 wet days. Old Billingsgate sits directly on the Thames, so the riverside walk from Tower Hill, Monument or London Bridge can feel noticeably colder and windier than the sheltered City streets. Pack a waterproof outer layer, an umbrella and shoes that cope with wet pavements; layer up for cool mornings and warm exhibition halls.

    Plan for the climate

    Check temperatures and pack accordingly

    Venue connectivity

    UK mobile coverage in the City of London is strong on EE, Vodafone, Three and O2. Visitors from abroad can buy a prepaid SIM at Heathrow or Liverpool Street, or install a travel eSIM before departure; EU roaming is not automatic for every carrier, so check your plan. UK mains power is 230V at 50Hz with type G three-pin plugs, so travellers from Europe, North America and most of Asia need an adaptor. Venue Wi-Fi at Old Billingsgate is typically provided for exhibitors and press rather than all visitors - confirm access with the organiser, and plan to tether from a phone for live demos and postback testing on the show floor.

    Cultural notes

    Useful information to help you have a smooth and respectful visit.

    Currency and payments

    The UK uses pound sterling (GBP). Contactless card and mobile payments are accepted almost everywhere in London, including Tube and bus gates, and cash is rarely needed.

    Business dress

    Smart casual is the norm at London performance marketing events - chinos or jeans with a shirt or knitwear for most attendees, with a jacket for client meetings. Comfortable shoes matter given the walking between stations and the venue.

    Tipping and service

    Service charges of around 12.5 percent are often added to restaurant bills in London; check the bill before adding a tip. Taxi and black cab drivers do not expect a tip but rounding up is common.

    Queues and punctuality

    London runs on queuing and punctuality. Arrive a few minutes early for meetings and sessions, stand on the right on Underground escalators, and let passengers off trains before boarding.

    Networking etiquette

    Introductions are informal and first names are standard. Exchange details quickly and follow up by email within a couple of days; reciprocal drinks and coffees are common but not obligatory.

    Language and time zone

    The event runs in English and London is on Greenwich Mean Time in late October, after British Summer Time ends. Double-check calendar invitations from other regions when scheduling calls around the show.

    Visitor & Exhibitor Essentials

    Everything needed to arrive prepared, navigate the event, and make the visit productive.

    Flights

    Destination: LHR

    Heathrow (LHR) gives the best onward connection to Old Billingsgate via the Elizabeth line to Liverpool Street, so prefer it unless another airport is substantially cheaper. London City (LCY) is the closest option if your route serves it and is ideal for a short trip, while Gatwick (LGW) works well if you take Thameslink straight to London Bridge. Mid-October is a busy corporate travel period in London with school half-term demand late in the month, so book several weeks ahead and favour flexible or refundable fares. Add time for border queues at Heathrow and allow at least 90 minutes between landing and your first meeting. Final schedules and any airline changes should be checked directly with the carrier before travel.

    Transport

    Get to the venue and around the city with these options.

    Airport → venue: Primary gateways: London Heathrow (LHR): 50-70 min by car; about 45-55 min by Elizabeth line to Liverpool Street plus a 10 min walk; London Gatwick (LGW): 60-80 min by car; about 50-65 min by Thameslink or Southern to London Bridge plus a 12-15 min walk; London Stansted (STN): 65-85 min by car; about 55-70 min by Stansted Express to Liverpool Street plus a 10 min walk; London Luton (LTN): 70-90 min by car; about 60-75 min by shuttle plus Thameslink to London Bridge. Allow road or rail time to Ol

    Hotel → venue: Precinct hotels near Old Billingsgate: City of London (Bank / Tower): Premier Inn London Bank (Tower) hotel; Tower Hill: Hotel Indigo London - Tower Hill by IHG; Clerkenwell: Hotel Indigo London Clerkenwell by IHG.

    Ride-hail: Uber, Bolt and FREENOW are the main licensed ride-hailing apps in London, alongside black cabs that can be hailed on the street or booked through Gett. Old Billingsgate sits inside the central London Congestion Charge zone, and drivers usually pick up and drop off on Lower Thames Street rather than at the venue doors - confirm the exact arrangements with the organiser when carrying exhibition materials. A short hop between City hotels and the venue typically costs around GBP 8-15 outside surge periods, while airport runs are far more expensive than rail. At session close, expect surge pricing and a 5-10 minute wait for cars around Monument and London Bridge.

    Public transit: The venue is well served by Transport for London. Monument station (Circle and District lines) is the closest, roughly 5-7 minutes on foot, and Tower Hill (Circle and District) is about 8-10 minutes along Lower Thames Street. London Bridge (Jubilee and Northern lines) is a 12-15 minute riverside walk, and Tower Gateway DLR plus Fenchurch Street mainline station are also within walking distance. From Heathrow, take the Elizabeth line to Liverpool Street and walk 10 minutes, or the Piccadilly line into Zone 1 and change to Circle or District for Tower Hill. From Gatwick, Thameslink to London Bridge is the most direct option. Pay with a contactless bank card or mobile wallet on all Tube, DLR, Elizabeth line and bus services; daily and weekly caps apply automatically. Check the TfL Journey Planner at tfl.gov.uk for live disruptions before travelling, since weekend engineering works on the District and Circle lines are common in October.

    Parking: Old Billingsgate has no large dedicated visitor car park, and the surrounding City of London streets are narrow with controlled parking and loading restrictions. Drivers typically use commercial car parks such as Q-Park Tower Hill, the Minories car park near Tower Gateway, or London Bridge area car parks and walk 8-15 minutes to the venue. Expect roughly GBP 20-40 per day for parking, with the central London Congestion Charge of about GBP 15-18 per charging day on top; the zone operates on weekday daytime hours and weekend afternoons. The Ultra Low Emission Zone covers the whole of central London, so check your vehicle against the current ULEZ standard before driving in. For most attendees the Tube or a short walk from a City hotel is cheaper and faster than parking.

    Weather

    Plan and pack for the event climate.

    Month: October 2026

    Temperature: Expect typical mid-to-late October days of about 14-16C (57-61F) with night-time lows near 8-10C (46-50F) for the 19-21 October 2026 dates. The riverside position at Old Billingsgate means it often feels a few degrees colder than sheltered City streets, so bring a mid-layer and a warm top for evenings.

    Seasonality: October is one of London's wetter months, with roughly 55-60 mm of rain across 10-12 wet days, usually as short passing showers rather than all-day downpours. Daylight fades by late afternoon, so plan any riverside walks or photos between sessions rather than after the programme ends. An umbrella and water-resistant shoes are more useful than a heavy coat.

    Packing: Pack layers that work in a heated exhibition hall and on a windy riverside walk: shirts or knitwear, a light jacket, a packable waterproof shell and an umbrella. Bring comfortable walking shoes for the 10-15 minute walks from Monument, Tower Hill and London Bridge stations, plus a small bag for laptops and materials. Add a type G plug adaptor for UK sockets and a portable charger, since long days on the floor drain phones used for badge scanning and meeting apps.

    FAQs & glossary

    Answers

    Frequently asked

    When and where is PerformanceIN Live 2026 taking place?
    PerformanceIN Live runs 19-21 October 2026 at Old Billingsgate in the City of London, a riverside venue on the north bank of the Thames between London Bridge and Tower Hill. Check performancein.live for the confirmed daily opening hours and the final agenda.
    Who attends PerformanceIN Live?
    The audience is the performance and partner marketing community: advertisers and brand-side programme owners, affiliate and partner networks, publishers and creators, performance media and affiliate management agencies, and the tracking, attribution and fraud-prevention vendors that support them. Expect commercial and strategy roles rather than general marketing visitors.
    How do I register and what pass types are available?
    Registration is handled on the official site at performancein.live. Pass categories, group rates and any deadline for early booking are published there; the organiser's registration page is the only reliable source for pricing and cut-off dates.
    Is PerformanceIN Live a trade-only event?
    Yes, it is a business-to-business event aimed at people working in or buying performance marketing services. If you are unsure whether your role qualifies, contact the organiser before booking travel.
    Which topics are covered on the programme?
    Expect content on affiliate and partner programme growth, incrementality and measurement, paid search and paid social efficiency, creator and influencer monetisation, app growth, compliance and brand protection, and how AI tooling is changing performance media buying. Confirm the final track list on the schedule page.
    How do I get to Old Billingsgate by public transport?
    The closest Underground stations are Monument (Circle and District lines) and Tower Hill (Circle and District), both a short walk from the venue. London Bridge (Jubilee and Northern) is roughly a 12-15 minute walk along the river, and Tower Gateway DLR and Fenchurch Street mainline station are also within walking distance.
    Where should I stay for PerformanceIN Live?
    Hotels in the City around Tower Hill, Bank and Liverpool Street are walkable to Old Billingsgate, while London Bridge and Bankside on the south bank are a 15-20 minute walk across the river. Book early because mid-October is a busy corporate period in the City.
    What is the weather like in London in late October?
    Mid-to-late October in London is typically cool and changeable, with daytime highs around 14-16C, night-time lows near 8-10C and a high chance of short showers. The venue sits directly on the river, so it feels breezier than inland streets; bring a waterproof layer.
    Do I need a visa or travel authorisation to attend from abroad?
    Many nationalities can visit the UK for business meetings without a visa, but the UK now requires an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) for many visa-exempt travellers. Check the current rules and fee on gov.uk well before you book flights.
    Is there parking at or near the venue?
    Old Billingsgate has no large dedicated visitor car park. Drivers typically use commercial car parks such as Q-Park Tower Hill or the Minories car park and walk 10 minutes to the venue, and the central London Congestion Charge applies on weekdays.
    Can I arrange meetings with networks and agencies at the show?
    Yes - the event is built around commercial conversations between brands, networks and partners. Review the exhibitor and sponsor list on performancein.live before you travel and request meetings in advance, since diaries fill quickly across a three-day programme.
