The event – hosted by trade body Eventia – has established itself as one of the key educational and networking events of the UK's conference calendar.
Last year it attracted 250 attendees to The Lowry Hotel in Manchester.
"This is the first time that we've taken the event to a seaside resort destination," said Eventia CEO Izania Downie. "We are impressed with the conference-planning team at the venue and believe that working in close partnership with both the venue and the destination we will deliver, yet again, an enjoyable, professional and must-attend event."
Holiday Inn Brighton Seafront sales manager Sally Crowley added: "We are very much looking forward to working with the team to produce a thoroughly enjoyable and hugely successful event."
