Out There Sessions [Winter 2026]

An evening dedicated to exploring the intersection of creativity, outdoor culture and the future.

What you get:

• 4 short talks from speakers at the vanguard of their profession
• Time for socialising and connection
• A drink to start warm food at the interval

Out There Sessions [Formerly Creative Assembly] are a curation of short talks, interviews and show-and-tells for the creatives, marketeers, brand managers and strategists of the outdoor industry.

They represent a resistance to gatekeeping and the assumption that everyone knows exactly what they're doing - a space to better your understanding of other roles, raise concerns and take inspiration.

Informal, constructive and quick paced, sessions finish by 9pm, then pub.

This years venue has capacity for 80 only.

Bring a pencil because you will want to take notes.

Hosted by Outside of Ordinary
