Plan your trip
Check the latest visa requirements and entry guidelines before travelling.
Visa-exempt nationals can attend business events, meetings and work-related training in the UK for up to 6 months without a visa, but must hold a valid UK Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) before boarding.
The UK does not operate an ATA carnet scheme; exhibitors moving goods into the UK use temporary admission or onward processing and should confirm customs paperwork with their freight forwarder.
Official visa pageWeather
London in late June is warm and changeable: daytime highs typically reach 21–23°C, night-time lows settle around 12–14°C, and the month brings roughly 45 mm of rain across about 8–10 wet days, often as short afternoon showers. Daylight lasts until around 21:20, so evenings along Royal Victoria Dock are bright and pleasant. Pack light layers with a compact waterproof jacket, comfortable shoes for the ExCeL halls, and smart-casual business wear for conference sessions — the air-conditioned halls can feel cool after a warm afternoon outside.
Plan for the climate
Check temperatures and pack accordingly
Venue connectivity
The UK's four national networks — EE, Vodafone, Three and O2 — deliver strong 4G and widespread 5G coverage across London, including the Royal Docks. Visitors can pick up a prepaid SIM at Heathrow, Gatwick or London City arrivals, or install a travel eSIM (Airalo, Holafly, Ubigi or the operator eSIM plans from EE and Vodafone) before departure and activate it on landing. EU roaming does not apply to UK networks post-Brexit, so check your home plan; hotel and ExCeL venue Wi-Fi is free but mobile data is the reliable backup for video calls, tethering and app-based travel payments.
Ride-hailing
Taxis
Public transit
Car rentals
Useful information to help you have a smooth and respectful visit.
Tipping
Restaurant and bar bills usually include a discretionary 10–12.5% service charge; if it is not added, a 10% tip is standard. Taxi drivers are generally given a 10% tip.
Business dress and etiquette
Smart casual or business dress is typical at UK trade shows. Handshakes are standard, first names are used quickly, and punctuality for meetings is expected.
Queuing and networking
Queuing is observed strictly on the DLR, buses and at coffee counters. Evening networking often continues in pubs near the venue, where drinks are bought in rounds — offering to get the first round is a common courtesy.
Practical guides
Everything needed to arrive prepared, navigate the event, and make the visit productive.
Destination: LCY
Book London City (LCY) if your carrier serves it — it is the shortest transfer to ExCeL at 10–15 minutes by taxi. Heathrow (LHR) is otherwise the strongest choice because the Elizabeth line runs direct to Custom House in under an hour, while Gatwick (LGW) only makes sense when fares are materially lower. Fares into London climb for Monday and Tuesday departures, so book 8–12 weeks ahead and fly in on Monday 21 June for a Tuesday start. Allow at least three hours at Heathrow or Gatwick for summer-peak check-in and security on the return leg.
Most visitors from visa-exempt countries can enter the UK for business for up to 6 months without a visa, but must hold a UK Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) before travel. Visa nationals need a Standard Visitor visa covering meetings, conferences and work-related training.
Estimated cost: GBP 135 (about USD 170) for a UK Standard Visitor visa; the UK ETA for visa-exempt visitors is a separate low-cost online authorisation.
Processing: Varies by nationality; apply several weeks before travel.
Visiting the UK for business, including attending a trade show, meetings and work-related training, is permitted under the Standard Visitor route for up to 6 months. Carry your conference registration or invitation; visa-exempt nationals including US citizens now need a UK ETA before boarding.
OfficialGet to the venue and around the city with these options.
Airport → venue: Primary gateways: London City Airport (LCY): 10–15 min by road; London Heathrow Airport (LHR): 60–90 min by road; 55–60 min by Elizabeth line; London Gatwick Airport (LGW): 75–95 min by road; 85–100 min by rail; London Stansted Airport (STN): 60–80 min by road; 75–90 min by rail. Allow road or rail time to ExCeL London; on-site parking is usually available at major exhibition venues.
Hotel → venue: Precinct hotels near ExCeL London: Royal Victoria Dock / Custom House: Royal Victoria Dock / Custom House; Royal Victoria Dock, ExCeL campus: Royal Victoria Dock, ExCeL campus; Royal Docks / Canary Wharf / central London: Royal Docks / Canary Wharf / central London.
Ride-hail: Uber, Bolt and FREE NOW all operate across Greater London and serve the Royal Docks, with designated pick-up and drop-off points on the ExCeL estate. Expect roughly GBP 25–45 for a Canary Wharf or City run to the venue (20–30 minutes) and GBP 50–90 from the West End (35–50 minutes), with surge pricing on weekday peaks. Licensed black cabs are metered, can be hailed on the street or booked through the Gett app, and start at about GBP 3.80.
Public transit: ExCeL London (Royal Victoria Dock, E16) is served by Custom House on both the Elizabeth line and the DLR, plus Prince Regent DLR — all within a five-minute walk of the halls. Contactless bank cards, Apple/Google Pay, Oyster and travelcards work across the Elizabeth line, DLR, Tube and buses; central London to Custom House costs roughly GBP 2.80–3.40 off-peak, and DLR hops from Canary Wharf or Stratford run about GBP 2.00–2.80. The Elizabeth line reaches Custom House in about 20 minutes from Tottenham Court Road and 12 minutes from Liverpool Street, while journeys from Heathrow take around 55 minutes with no changes.
Parking: ExCeL London has two on-site multi-storey car parks with roughly 3,000 spaces, reached from the A13/A1020 via Royal Victoria Dock; pre-booking online is cheaper than the drive-up tariff and show-day rates sit around GBP 15–25 per vehicle. Blue-badge bays are located close to the hall entrances with step-free routes into the exhibition halls. Coach and taxi drop-off is on the east side of the venue, and street parking around the Royal Docks is limited and camera-controlled, so plan to park on site or arrive by rail.
Plan and pack for the event climate.
Month: Late June 2027 (show days 22–23 June)
Temperature: Daytime highs 21–23°C, night-time lows 12–14°C; air-conditioned ExCeL halls feel cooler than the dock-side terraces.
Seasonality: June is summer in London but one of the wetter months, with rain expected on roughly 10-16 days and about 45-57 mm of rainfall across the month.
Packing: Pack light, layered clothing with a waterproof jacket or compact umbrella for frequent showers, comfortable shoes for walking the ExCeL halls, and smart-casual business attire for meetings and conference sessions.
Plan your trip
