With healthy summer trading conditions already being reported by numerous operators, EAG’s organisers are predicting a positive outlook for the 2016 event, to be staged at ExCel London on 12-14th January. Show Organiser Karen Cooke explains: “Exhibitor bookings are already strong, with many companies particularly enthusiastic about new product launches planned for the show. This year the arrival of the Visitor Attraction Expo broadened the visitor base, creating further potential for many of the shows’ participants. Exhibitors will be supported by extensive media coverage and we’re working closely with industry groups to maintain the show’s position as a must-attend event for everyone involved in our industry.”
EAG’s exhibitors represent every facet of the industry, from well-established international brands through to exciting start-ups and everything in between. Visitors will be able to see, touch and hear the very latest products from more than 200 manufacturers, some of which will be literally business transforming. In the words of Sam Leisure’s Gary Drage, “If you have new products, you have to be at EAG.”
EAG’s timing, at the very start of the New Year, is perfect for operators considering investment for the coming season. Indeed many will be treating EAG as a forum for exchanging views and comparing notes and experiences with industry colleagues.
EAG’s networking role has also not been lost on the numerous industry associations, trading partners and special interest groups that schedule their own gatherings around the show. For the IOA, EAG 2016 will be particularly important, with Chairman Paul Langham revealing, “January will mark the IOA’s 25th anniversary and we’ll shortly be announcing news of a very special celebratory event that will take place during the show.”
EAG’s seminar programme also continues to grow, enabling participants to share views and catch-up with the latest thinking on a number of key issues confronting the industry.
With exhibitors and visitors representing every facet of the industry converging on ExCel from more than 60 countries, EAG International 2016 promises unrivalled business and networking opportunities.
