If you want access to all of the Bookkeepers Summit content, please book a Best of Both ticket which gives you access to both the In-Person event and Online event.
What's included in the in-person ticket?
The In-Person event includes a hot lunch, refreshments throughout the day, and an ICB delegate bag. We'll have inspirational keynote speakers and a thriving exhibition for you to see.
What's included in the online ticket?
The Online event features more in-depth technical sessions that are better watched at your desk where you can take notes and take breaks. Recordings of the online sessions will be available to watch on catchup for three months after the Summit.
Unfortunately lunch and a delegate bag aren't included but everyone gets a mini delegate pack in the post if booking by 7 October.
What's included in the 'Best of Both' ticket?
The Best of Both ticket gets you the best of both the in-person and online events which take place on different days and have different speakers.
Recordings of the online sessions will be available to watch on catchup for three months after the Summit. In addition to the delegate bag you'll pick up at the Park Plaza Hotel Westminster, you'll also receive a mini delegate pack in the post if you book by 7 October.
Can I use the app?
Yes, no matter what ticket you purchase, you'll get a login to our event app for networking during the Bookkeepers Summit. This is a great way to meet other bookkeepers, or say hi before you meet up in-person.

Access to the online sessions, and their recordings, is not included in the In-Person ticket.
