Ishka Aviation Finance Festival

21 May 2025, Conrad Dublin

Dublin’s premier gathering of airlines and the leasing community

Our 8th mid-year summer extravaganza delivers an action-packed day of expert analysis, insight and debate on the key issues facing the aviation finance market as we head into H2. Connecting airline treasurers, lessors, and the wider financing community – this event blends engaging agendas with first class networking.

Our unique festival format combines first-class content and a forward-thinking agenda, with innovative, offbeat, interactive session formats. We put the highest concentration of key decision-makers across the aviation finance ecosystem in one room. Expect intimate, informal and efficient networking in a relaxed environment. This is so much more than just your typical corporate conference.

New this year: the Ishka Forums – laser-focused, thoroughly researched session delivered by subject matter experts in a closed-door environment. Attendees are preregistered to maximise the learning and networking experience
