Join us this May 2026 in the stunning lakeside Riva del Garda for the Outdoor Impact Summit, now part of the inaugural European Outdoor Week, a new gathering for the outdoor industry to celebrate progress, innovation, and purpose.
Building on the success of last year’s event, the 2026 Summit will once again bring together thought leaders from across the outdoor sector to explore how our collective actions can drive real, measurable change for people and the planet. But this year, our theme is clear: No Excuses!
The time for pledges without progress has passed. Together, we’ll focus on turning ambition into accountability, tackling the barriers that slow impact, sharing the solutions that scale, and committing to bold, transparent action across sustainability, circularity, biodiversity, and social responsibility.
Join us for two days of collaboration and challenge, where we stop talking about what could be done and start actioning... no excuses!


Our agenda is designed to spark fresh thinking, inspire action, and empower our industry to create positive impact. Through keynote sessions, interactive workshops, open discussions, and outdoor activities, you’ll gain insights from thought leaders, connect with peers facing the same challenges, and leave with concrete strategies to embed impact across your organisations.
