The 9th SME4Labour Gala Dinner will take place on Monday, 22nd June 2026, at the London Marriott Hotel Grosvenor Square.

This annual gala is a cornerstone event for SME4Labour, bringing together small and medium-sized business owners, entrepreneurs, trade union representatives, policymakers, parliamentarians, councillors and supporters of the Labour movement for an evening of engagement, recognition and connection. The event provides a unique platform to strengthen the relationship between SMEs and Labour, highlighting the essential role small businesses play in economic growth, job creation and thriving local communities across the UK.

A key highlight of the evening will be the SME4Labour Excellence Awards, which celebrate individuals, organisations and institutions that have made outstanding contributions to SME success and to the Labour movement nationwide. From entrepreneurs and trade unions to MPs, councillors and campaigners, the awards honour those who are driving progress, delivering meaningful change and standing up for shared values of fairness, opportunity and social responsibility.

Guests will enjoy a formal gala dinner in an iconic London venue, alongside a focused and engaging programme designed to encourage meaningful dialogue and high-level networking between business leaders and political decision-makers.

A range of table packages and individual ticket options will be available, allowing businesses, organisations and supporters to participate in a way that best suits their needs.

The 9th SME4Labour Gala Dinner promises an impactful evening that champions SMEs, celebrates excellence and reinforces the importance of collaboration between business, communities and progressive politics.
