PiGs Bristol 2026 has arrived

Today is the day for PiGs AKA People in Glazing Society’s Bristol event, with glazing professionals from across the country set to gather for an evening of networking, discussion and industry insight.

Taking place Brown & Bye on the Bristol harbourside, the event will once again bring together manufacturers, installers, suppliers and industry bodies in the relaxed and informal environment that PiGs is known for.

Ahead of the main evening event at 5pm, attendees will also be able to take part in the latest PiGs Talking Shop with Glazpartners session.

Starting at 4pm, the technical-focused discussion hour will provide an opportunity to explore current industry topics, share knowledge and gain practical insights from fellow professionals.

PiGs has become renowned for creating an environment where meaningful business relationships can be formed, ideas can be exchanged and industry challenges discussed, all without the formality often associated with traditional networking events.

Pre-registration for the event has seen record numbers for the Bristol event, with 180+ expected to attend on the day.

With interest continuing to grow from those that overlap the joinery and glazing sectors, PiGs Bristol offers a valuable opportunity for timber window and door manufacturers, installers and suppliers to connect with peers, meet potential new contacts and keep up to date with developments across the wider fenestration industry.
