TranslateAble to Provide BSL Interpreters for Cvent CONNECT Europe 2026

British Sign Language interpreters will sign the general sessions at this year's event, 20–22 October at InterContinental London – The O2 and online.

We're delighted to announce that TranslateAble will provide British Sign Language (BSL) interpreters for the general sessions at Cvent CONNECT Europe 2026. It's one of the highlights of the European events calendar, and we're proud to help make its main stage content accessible to Deaf and hard of hearing attendees.

Cvent Connect Europe

A short history of Cvent CONNECT Europe

Cvent CONNECT Europe launched in October 2017 at the Pullman London St Pancras, with more than 300 event, hospitality and travel professionals in attendance. It brought the success of Cvent's long-running US user conference to a European audience for the first time.

In the years since, the event has grown from a customer conference into a genuine industry gathering for event, marketing and hospitality professionals, whether or not they use Cvent. In 2024, the event welcomed more than 1,500 people onsite at the Hilton London Metropole, with thousands more joining virtually, as Cvent marked 25 years since Reggie Aggarwal founded the company.

This year the event moves to InterContinental London – The O2 and continues its hybrid format, with registrants expected from across the globe.
