Four Minutes to Change the City

National Urban Design Conference opening event - An evening of fast moving talks, discussion and radical ideas on the urban future

Our usual warm get-together on the evening before our annual National Urban Design Conference, but this time we’re giving a variety of speakers four minutes to share an idea that could change the way we think about our cities.

Expect quick, thought-provoking talks on something each speaker believes the urban design community should know about. It could be an idea, a challenge, a lesson, a provocation or a different way of seeing our places.

You don't need to be part of the conference! We welcome everyone: architects, engineers, historians, planners, surveyors, landscape architects, researchers, students and, especially, delegates joining us for the National Urban Design Conference.

Your ticket includes one free drink!
