The Garden Centre Expo

With Garden Centre Retail celebrating its 10th anniversary in March 2024, The team has had its finger on the garden retail pulse for some time. Combining these 10 years of experience, with another decade running leading trade exhibitions in the UK, we’re perfectly positioned to launch a content-led, editorially driven exhibition, bringing together educational, informative and inspirational opportunities for a two-day event.

Portfolio Director Luke Page says: “With Garden Centre Expo we will create an immersive platform that combines thought leadership with an exceptional content program, alongside industry-leading suppliers who showcase the most pertinent solutions in garden centre retail. We’re excited to curate an event that not only demonstrates cutting-edge products but also fosters insightful conversations, innovative ideas, and invaluable connections. 

Our aim is to address the most significant challenges faced in the garden retail sector, while also providing a platform for garden centres to receive education and inspiration on the latest topics, trends and subjects within this space. We look to equip them with the necessary tools to cultivate growth and flourish.

This expo will be a hub for industry development, knowledge exchange, and collaboration, further enriching the vibrant garden retail sector.”
