Our Partners for Rail Link 2026 Events
We are proud to collaborate with the above organisations for our 2026 Rail Link events. These valued partners play a crucial role in facilitating rail industry networking and bringing together the UK, Irish, and European rail communities. Their support is essential in delivering impactful exhibitor opportunities and business development across the sector. We look forward to working with our partners to create exceptional UK Irish rail events in Dublin, Belfast, and Cork throughout 2026.
About Rail Link Events
As professionals working in the rail industry, we understand the unique demands of the sector. Drawing on this expertise, we have created Rail Link, exclusive UK Irish rail events aimed at fostering interactions among key stakeholders in the UK & Irish Rail industries.
Our events offer unparalleled environments ideal for rail industry networking. They provide the perfect platform for connecting with industry peers.
Our aim is to accommodate Railway Infrastructure and Building Services enterprises of all sizes, facilitate the renewal of existing connections, and form new business relationships by bringing together the UK, Irish, and European networks.
These UK and Irish rail events offer a valuable opportunity for exhibitors to showcase their services and products to a focused audience at a competitive cost. The events serve as a crucial point in Ireland where leading industry buyers deploy their procurement managers to find innovative solutions and new suppliers.
Exhibitors at our networking events are invited to explore exhibitor opportunities by booking a stand by contacting us via email. Each standard stall is furnished with a 6ft table and two chairs, offering ample space for pop-up banners and product displays. Larger spaces are available, so please get in touch for details.
To optimize networking opportunities, it is required that all staff from both exhibiting and visiting companies register for our events. Visitor registration for our next event is now open.
Please note that while there is a fee for exhibitor spaces, visitor registration is free. Additionally, there is no restriction on the number of staff attendees, allowing companies to fully maximize the networking potential presented by the event.
About Rail Link Awards
The Rail Link LOOKOUT Awards will be held at the distinguished Fota Island Resort in Cork, Ireland, on 5th November 2026.

Our intimate annual Gala Dinner and Awards Ceremony celebrates the Rail Industry workforce, honouring everyone from station staff and drivers to designers, installers, managers, newcomers, and lifelong contributors. These awards truly embrace everyone in rail.
We will be recognizing recent achievements, newly completed and ongoing projects, and the invaluable contributions of staff from graduates to seasoned professionals. Our events are open to participants from the UK, Ireland, and Europe, reflecting our belief that significant accomplishments are often born from collaboration.
We celebrate these great achievements together, fostering closer ties and establishing lasting industry bonds!
