Blend 2025 tickets now available

Tickets are now available for The Blend 2025, the must-attend conference and networking event for independent garage owners, with an ‘early bird’ discount available until the end of May.

Taking place on Saturday, 18th October 2025, at the Eastside Rooms in Birmingham, The Blend promises another valuable day of networking and expert-led sessions.

“We can't wait to bring the community back together once again for The Blend 2025,” said Ray Dilsons, Event Director at The Blend. “Whether you're new to The Blend or have been before, you’ll feel at home in this supportive, inspiring environment. It’s about learning, sharing, and growing together.”

Open to all independent garages from the UK and Ireland, The Blend is organised by Garage Hive but is not about its garage management system. Instead, it focuses on empowering garage owners to connect, share insights, and gain practical advice to drive business success. It’s an opportunity to be inspired by a wider community of industry peers and collaborate for growth.

The conference will feature a dynamic format, offering a selection of expert speakers and a variety of trade supplier stands showcasing the latest tools, equipment, and services for garages. The day will conclude with an evening of celebration, including a dinner, awards ceremony, and entertainment.

“It’s about more than just the sessions,” said Ray. “The Blend is a unique opportunity to engage with like-minded individuals, exchange ideas, and build lasting business relationships.”
