The Super Early Bird window for the fifth edition of the Digital Content Forum (DCF) is fast approaching its deadline. Anyone who wants to take advantage of the current competitive rate needs to act now before the baseline price rises from April 30.
The price adjustment marks the next phase in the rollout for the 2026 edition, which returns to London’s BFI Southbank on November 5, 2026
With organisers signalling strong early demand, the latest hosting of the DCF will once again bring together producers, platforms, studios and digital-first content creators for a day of industry-focused insight and networking.
The Digital Content Forum has established itself as a key fixture for the UK’s digital production economy. The event has tracked and anticipated key shifts in the market, from the rise of creator-led businesses to the growing importance of platform-native commissioning and multi-format IP strategies.
While the full programme is still in development, organisers have confirmed that the speaker line-up and event sponsors will be announced in the coming months. Previous editions have featured digital-native studios, broadcasters, platforms and creators, reflecting the convergence between traditional media and the creator economy.
TellyCast founder Justin Crosby said early indicators point to another high-demand year for the Forum. “We’re already seeing very strong interest at this stage,” he said. “If that momentum continues, we fully expect the Digital Content Forum to sell out this year. The appetite for understanding how the digital-first economy is evolving – and where the opportunities lie has only intensified in the last year.”
The 2026 edition will continue to focus on the practical realities of producing and monetising content in a platform-driven landscape, building on themes explored in previous years including social video, branded content, digital formats and the growth of creator collectives. It will also provide invaluable networking opportunities.
