ARC360 2026 is set to bring together the organisations actively shaping the future of the UK vehicle repair sector when it returns to the British Motor Museum, Gaydon on Thursday 21 May.

The event continues to strengthen its position as one of the industry’s most important meeting points, with representation already confirmed from around 30 insurer brands, more than 10 vehicle manufacturers and some of the UK’s most innovative, forward-thinking and fastest-growing repair businesses.

The event will also feature the New Generation Hub, delivered in partnership with AutoRaise, alongside a dedicated expo arena and vehicle demonstration opportunities.
