Registrations are now open for National Manufacturing Day 2026, taking place on Thursday 24 September 2026.
Now in its fifth year, National Manufacturing Day (NMD) is a great opportunity for manufacturers across the UK to open their doors and showcase what modern manufacturing really looks like, from cutting-edge technology to the wide range of careers on offer.
Whether it’s site tours, demonstrations, talks or hands-on activities, businesses of all sizes can take part. It’s a chance to inspire young people, connect with local schools and colleges, and highlight the value and impact of our sector.
Signing up is quick and easy, and you can build your plans over time with support and resources from the Make UK NMD team.
With schools and colleges planning ahead, we’d encourage you to register and reach out early to help maximise engagement.
