What’s it about?
UN//SCENE is a brand new creative and marketing festival. All our profits are going to industry charities.
UN//SCENE is designed to provide a stage for forward thinking innovation and fresh new voices, without being driven by a commercial agenda.
Ours is a show, not a show off.
This September, our volunteer-led festival will platform urgent discussions about the world around us.
Hosted at the beautiful Conway Hall in Holborn, London, we are creating a host of tracks, as detailed below. We’ll debate ideas as a community, design solutions to our collective challenges and create plans of action.
We’ll soon be open for you to apply to be a speaker. Before then, start thinking about your brightest ideas for talks, roundtables, workshops and more. You can sign up to be the first to know when submissions are live via the box below.
SPONSORS: We have some select sponsor opportunities available. If you are interested we’d love to talk to you, so please contact us or get in touch with our committee.

UN//SEEN Potential
Never stepped on a stage before? This is the festival for you to make your debut.
We are creating space for our industry’s ‘future headliners’.
We won’t throw you in at the deep-end. This track will include short-form speaker slots and ‘dinner party’ style sharing circles, where you can discuss your ideas with other curious industry minds.

UN//SOLVED Problems
Feel like the big problems in our industry get overlooked? Want to do something but feel alone?
We’ll tackle challenges that feel too complex, too systemic, too risky to fix alone.
We will host workshops and open problem-solving sessions for anyone who believes we can do better and who wants to start now.

UN//SPOKEN Possibilities
Got an idea you think can change the world? Want to innovate upon innovations? This is your track.

We will host debates, fireside chats and roundtables to reinvent the ways we work, to redefine what success looks like.

UN//APOLOGETIC Perspectives
Want to tell a story that creates a paradigm shift?
We’ll create a safe space for our most powerful stories.
