Additional opportunitiesAs we limit the styles of stands to ensure we have a good mix at our shows, it often means that those businesses wanting to have a presence at the show are not able to do so due to cost and availability.

Leaflets
We have a branded carrier bag, and we are happy to distribute your leaflets in carrier bags for you, ensuring all visitors to the shows at least receive a leaflet about your business.

Excellent show yesterday... glad I’m already
booked in for the next one.Neil White Photography
We thought the show was brilliant for us. We came away with 50 enquiries
so I am sure we will do some good business from that many. Please book
us in for next year’s show in the same position!Steve – Schtuff Photography
What our exhibitors had to say...
The potential customers I spoke to seemed genuine enquirers,
so many shows seem to attract visitors “just having a day
out”. It is always a good sign when the groom comes as well
(whether he wanted to or not). Congratulations on a good
day and I will look forward to attending another of your fairs
in the future.Lester – Clear Image Productions
Just wanted to congratulate you on a fantastic show. I got 8 firm Stag & Hen enquiries from the show which is excellent. We will definitely be booking for the same time next year as the timing worked really well with the Summer 2015 Bride & Grooms starting to think about the Stag & Hen parties.Rosie – Superbreaks
Thank you very much for everything. It was a great day. Very
well organized and professional event. We are very pleased with the
amount of visitors.Sandra – Mercure Last Drop Village Bolton
