Professional Beauty’s announcement places its London event at ExCeL on 4–5 October 2026, alongside Salon International. This report examines the programme available at our 4 October 2026 source check; it does not report attendance or outcomes from the venue. [1]

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • The announced dates are 4–5 October 2026 at ExCeL London. [1]
  • The programme includes a dedicated nails and beauty zone and Nailympia. [1]
  • An advance programme is not a report of what actually happened.

Where nail professionals fit in the show

The organiser groups nails with lashes, make-up, waxing and brows in one of three exhibition zones. The other two cover spa, skincare and new brands, and advanced treatments. The show is advertised as free to attend for its professional audience. [1]

Stages, workshops and competitions

The notice names the Professional Beauty, Skin and Longevity, Business and iiaa stages, plus CIDESCO workshops. It also announces Nailympia and the National Massage Championship. These are different programme formats: a stage session, a workshop and a judged competition should not be described as one event. [1]

What this dated announcement establishes

Georgia Walkden’s article was published on 1 May 2026 and updated on 10 September 2026. At the 4 October 2026 check it still included advance wording about further agendas. We therefore retain its announced dates and formats, without treating that wording as a newly confirmed timetable or inventing competition results. [1]
