Now in its 8th year The World Rail Festival continues to grow and attract a large audience of rail, bus and urban operators, disruptors and transport thought leaders from around the world.

The event brings international rail executives together to discuss the digitisation of the rail business model, how commercial growth can be achieved and how rail could prepare to meet the demands of the travel ecosystem of the future.

The event continues to grow and attract an increasing number of global rail operators, disruptors and start-ups.

In 2018 we will continue to make sure the latest technologies, disruptors and leading thinkers are represented at the event.

New focuses in 2018 will be incorporating urban transport providers and government owners as well as long distance bus operators.

In 2018 we will be adding a big focus on smart ticketing and MAAS solutions as well as hosting a number of focussed pre-conference summits covering key issues and bringing the commercial divisions of rail together.
