  • The main gathering is on Saturday 9 January 2027, from 11 am to 6pm. Doors will open at 10:30 am and pastries and refreshments will be available. The day will be held at All Soul’s Langham Place (nearest tube station: Oxford Circus).

    We will also be gathering the evening before on Friday 8 January for a prayer and worship night from 7pm to 9pm. This will be held at Christ Church Kensington (nearest tube station: Gloucester Road).

  • The event is aimed at 16-30 year old Christians who are considering how they can best go all-in for Jesus with their careers.

    However, the event is open to anyone who would like to engage with these topics, with non-concession tickets on sale for those who are already in full-time work.

  • Your ticket includes access to both the Saturday gathering and the Friday prayer and worship night, as well as a copy of our newly published book, All-In.

    Though we had previously advertised that the event would be catered, lunch is not provided. Hot drinks and a pastry will be provided to delegates ahead of the morning content.

  • Standard tickets are £45, and concession tickets (including for students) are £20.

    Having reviewed feedback from last year, we have taken the decision to not provide lunch in order to make the day more affordable. We would encourage delegates to grab lunch from one of the many spots near to All Soul’s, or to bring a packed lunch.

  • If you have any further questions, we would be delighted to help. Please let us know by contacting hello@fruitfulwork.org and we’ll get back to you as soon as possible.
