Quiet Hour will be from 11am to 12am, with lower visitor numbers and no music or performances to help with sensory overload. Our suppliers are also aware and will not approach visitors in this time unless they are asked questions 

Admission is in 2 sessions to aid flow around the show. Please choose 12am to 2pm, or 2pm to 4pm on the ticket page. You will not be asked to leave at the end of the session and are free to stay as long as you need.

VIP goody bags are an amazing way to get loads of gifts and samples from our incredible suppliers. Our exclusive tote is filled with goody’s and special offers from the amazing businesses at the show AND from suppliers who aren’t able to make the event and they are guaranteed to be worth over £50.
