​​

We apologise for the very short lead up this year but we did not want to start booking exhibitors before we could 100% secure a suitable venue where we are able to provide an exceptional day for patrons with a great choice of food and beverages as well as secure indoor space for you as an exhibitor. As always we will do our best to make things run as smoothly as possible and ask for your patience while we get used to our new entirely indoor venue.
