Conference Dinner

Summer Symposium 2026

The 2026 NEON Summer Symposium will be held on Thursday 11th and Friday 12th June at Liverpool John Moores University.

Over the years the NEON Summer Symposium Dinner has become an essential part of the conference. The ability to network with colleagues, in a more informal environment, and to hear from undergraduate students about their educational journey make this more than just the normal conference meal. This year we have secured a stunning venue, the Hope Street Hotel. Join your fellow delegates at the Hope Street Hotel for a three course dinner, on Thursday 11th June. The dinner gives you a chance to network and hear inspirational stories from outstanding students. Hope Street Hotel is a stunning venue. Enjoy the views across Liverpool from the rooftop location before enjoying a three course meal accompanied by wine.

Address: Hope Street Hotel, 40 Hope Street, Liverpool, L1 9DA

Price: £68
