ICE Live is the UK’s only dedicated event for road and community safety professionals who use virtual reality (VR) as part of their education outreach. Building on the success of previous years, the 2026 programme will once again bring together leading researchers, practitioners, and technology experts to share insights, evidence, and practical skills.

Across the day, you can expect a mix of keynote presentations, interactive breakout workshops, and opportunities for networking with colleagues who are also exploring the use of immersive media. Themes from past events have included the latest research into VR’s effectiveness for behaviour change, trauma-informed approaches to education, hardware and software care, and how to evaluate VR interventions on a budget. We’ve also heard from practitioners on their real-world challenges and successes, as well as explored specialist topics such as VR and neurodiversity, non-immersive VR, and film production.

For 2026, the focus will continue to be on practical learning and collaboration. Whether you’re new to VR or already delivering programmes, ICE Live is designed to equip you with fresh ideas, evidence-based approaches, and a supportive professional network.
