Canon unveils its speaker lineup and must-attend attractions at this year’s The Photography & Video Show
London, UK, 3rd March 2026 – Canon is inviting photography and videomaking enthusiasts to dive into a world of creative possibilities at The Photography & Video Show (TPVS), running from Saturday 14th to Tuesday 17th March. Across four days, attendees can look forward to hands-on experiences of its latest products, exciting live demonstrations, inspiring talks and expert guidance designed to spark every photographer and creator’s craft.
Venue: NEC, Birmingham
Discover Canon’s innovation in imaging
At this year’s show, attendees can get up close for a dynamic live shooting experience featuring a kata (Japanese martial arts) performance, offering the perfect opportunity to put Canon’s hybrid cameras to the test for still photo and video capabilities. Get ready to explore the mirrorless EOS R series line-up from the loved by creators’ EOS R50 V, the high-speed full-frame EOS R6 Mark III, up to the powerful Cinema EOS C50, alongside an extensive range of RF lenses.
TPVS attendees will be among the first to step into Canon’s immersive underwater VR experience. Shot in partnership with Nature Seychelles and Coral Spawning International, the video will reveal the plights that coral reefs face and the reason why it’s paramount we act together today to save them. It will also demonstrate how its imaging technology is enabling marine biologists to uncover invaluable insights for their research.
This ground-breaking experience demonstrates how the EOS VR System can be pushed to new creative heights, capturing compelling footage while delivering an engaging experience for attendees.
Inspiration from leading creators
Across all four days, the Canon Spotlight Stage will host an exciting programme of talks designed to educate, motivate and spark new creative storytelling.
