The FAVES Hospitality Conference is coming to Leeds in March, a peer-led gathering built to uplift, connect, and empower the people who keep hospitality alive.
Ben Randm and Ricky Burwell, the duo behind FAVES
Hosted at the Howard Assembly Room from 2nd-4th March, each day is dedicated to a specific peer group — women, Pride, and men — to ensure every conversation is led by those it directly relates to.
From top to bottom — hosts, panelists, and attendees — the emphasis is on shared experience, lived understanding, and cultural progress from the inside out.
“It’s not about titles, it’s about the people,” say organisers Ben Randm and Ricky Burwell, co-founders of FAVES. “We’ve felt the quiet questions that get buried, the pressure that goes unspoken, and the ambition that doesn’t know where to land. This conference is for all of that.”
