Designed and manufactured in Canada, this professional extraction tool removes pins quickly, safely, and without damage.

We have been blown away by the number of exhibitor bookings over the last 3 weeks.

This is a record for us for this early in the year, with only a small selection of space left available in our Exhibition Hall (in 2025 it was fully booked in July, so this is unusual!). Everyone is being very organised getting their space secured before the events season gets underway.

This might sound like a sales pitch, but it really isn't. It is more of a shout-out to avoid disappointment. 🫠

The Exhibition Hall is always popular & sells out early - it is where all of our visitors pass through before they hit the Outside Space of the show, so if an indoor stand is your preference, please get in touch to see a site plan.
