Quality in the lighting chain
Future Lighting is the Dutch-Belgian lighting event in Gorinchem on 19 & 20 November 2025. Together with industry organisations NSVV, Groen Licht Vlaanderen, IBE-BIV & Fedet | NLA, we are setting up a rock-solid knowledge programme. These are scientific sessions that focus on the function of light and the effect of light on the well-being of humans and animals.
With this knowledge, lighting designers, architects, consultants, facility managers and building managers walk straight into the expo. Here, 75 exhibitors are eager to present their latest lighting solutions and to enter into a dialogue about the future of lighting.

Ben jij op zoek naar écht bruikbare handvatten, waardevolle lessen, nieuwe inspiratie én nieuw
Are you looking for truly useful tools, valuable lessons, new inspiration and new contacts? During Future Lighting we offer you this and more.
Experts from the lighting industry climbed the stage on Wednesday 22 and Thursday 23 November 2022 and showed what is possible with light. Think of: how do you use light for data communication? What risk does a disrupted light-dark cycle have on health problems later in life? How do you let electric lighting compensate for the lack of daylight in the right way? But also what can we learn from light generation in nature?
In addition to leading knowledge sessions, we also offered an expo: exhibitors and partners who offer the best solutions. Future Lighting is not a traditional trade fair, but a focused conference for the lighting industry and a selection of the most leading suppliers of lighting solutions.
Future Lighting is a new event that had its first edition in 2022. And an immediate success. Exhibitors rated this edition with an 8.3. Visitors were satisfied with their introduction to the latest developments, trends and innovations.

Experts uit de lichtbranche beklommen op woensdag 22 en donderdag 23 november 2022 het podium en lieten zien wat er allemaal mogelijk is met licht. Denk o.a. aan: hoe gebruik je licht voor datacommunicatie? Welke risico heeft een verstoord licht-donker cyclus op gezondheidsproblemen op latere leeftijd? Hoe laat je elektrische verlichting het gebrek aan daglicht op de juiste manier compenseren? Maar ook wat kunnen we leren van lichtopwekking in de natuur?
Naast toonaangevende kennissessies boden we ook een expo aan: exposanten en partners die de beste oplossingen bieden. Future Lighting is geen traditionele beurs, maar een toegespitste conferentie voor de lichtindustrie en een selectie van de meest toonaangevende aanbieders in lichtoplossingen.

‘There is so much happening in the field of light and lighting that it is strange that there is no exclusive lighting event. We have been challenged by the market itself to organise a fantastic two-day niche event for this. We are happy to take up the gauntlet. The event fits right into the portfolio of Easyfairs' Building cluster.’

‘Technology is thundering forward. So much is already possible now. So much that even very many professionals do not know what is possible. And if you don't know, as a sector you don't create end-user demand either. This is why we need an event with light in the leading role. With Future Lighting, we have achieved that goal.’

‘Lighting is the fourth dimension in a space. Bad light destroys something, good light turns a space or environment into something wonderful. Future Lighting shows what is possible now, but especially in the future.’
