About ORFC
From a fringe protest of 50 people to a gathering of thousands, ORFC continues to bring the grassroots agroecology and food sovereignty movement together to lead the way towards a fairer food and farming system in the UK. The ORFC 2026 line-up will include 145+ dynamic in-person sessions, including 45+ livestreamed sessions, and will bring together pioneering voices from across the UK and around the world to address the crucial issues facing food and farming right now.
The 2026 hybrid conference will run from Thursday, 8th January through Friday 9th January, with in-person registration opening on the evening of Wednesday, 7th January.
An online ticket will give you access to 45+ sessions livestreamed from Oxford. An in-person ticket will give you access to all the sessions in Oxford (145+), including all the livestreamed sessions so that you can catch up on anything you missed after leaving the in-person conference. Tickets for the in-person ORFC go very quickly and space is limited, so book now to guarantee your place for January.
In gratitude and recognition that your support contributes to the radical spirit of ORFC, those who buy a Pay-It-Forward or Supporter Ticket will have their name or the name of their organisation printed in the ORFC programme, while those who buy an Online Supporter Ticket will have their name printed on our website.
Ticket Tiers Explained
To make sure ORFC 2026 reflects the radical and diverse community it represents, we offer tiered tickets. This sliding scale ensures that ORFC remains an equitable platform for the agroecological movement. We offer solidarity tickets early, and more ticket tiers will be released in September.
Choose a Pay-It-Forward Ticket (£375) to support fellow food and farming movement members to attend in person on a subsidised ticket rate.
Choose a Supporter Ticket (£225) and contribute towards supporting our amazing ORFC volunteer team.
Choose an Online Supporter Ticket (£50) to support a fellow food and farming movement member to attend online on a subsidised ticket rate.
We will release in-person and online General Tickets, Farmer Tickets, and Subsided Tickets in September. In-person bursary applications will open in the summer.
