New exhibitors applying for a stand

Detailed information regarding the types of stands sold can be found in our new exhibitor trade stand booklet here.

• Please include photos or leaflets of your products to help us process applications.
• Returning an application form does not mean you have booked space and we aim to let you know between February and April if we have space to offer to you.
• We are usually oversubscribed which means unfortunately we cannot offer stand space to everyone who applies.
• There’s no deadline to applying for space but we would advise applying by February.
• We accept applications until we are fully booked, which is usually around the beginning of April.
• Existing exhibitors are offered first refusal before space is offered to new exhibitors in February, March and April.

Food trade stands

Catering & Bar Concessions

• Catering for consumption & bar concessions at the show is not classed as a trade stand but as a catering/bar concession.
