Very soon, several of our fabulous Blackdown Team will be getting ready to welcome you to The 2024 Glamping Show, held at the NAEC Stoneleigh, between the 19th and 21st of September.
The Glamping Show is not a new endeavour for us, in fact we have been attending for several years now and always have a lovely time!
The Glamping Show is a trade show that is aimed at all those in the glamping sector, whether you already have an established glamping business, are a glamping supplier or even if you are just considering entering the sector. Whatever area of glamping you reside in, the show has something for everyone. It’s the type of event that is sure to see you walking away full of new information, inspiration and ideas.
Since its launch in 2015, the show has become the UK’s only dedicated Glamping trade exhibition and welcomes over 100 exhibitors each year. As a business that runs largely in the glamping sector it can be really tricky to market to all the different business types and channels encompassed within the sector, all at the same time. For us, The Glamping Show helps to solve this issue! It provides us with an event that hosts all the different business types in one big show – it’s a researcher’s heaven with so many people to talk to and new brands and customers to discover. Not only is it fabulous for new business but we also get to catch up with old friends and customers, some of whom we originally met in previous years at The Glamping Show! It’s a win win.
The best bit for you guys? It’s free admission for the whole three days! How amazing is that?
For an event that is free to attend it most certainly delivers to the max. With over 100 exhibitors to talk to, you’re sure to find something to add to your business at home or even inspire a new venture for the future. Think innovative outdoor technology, a new listing site or maybe even a Blackdown Sauna Cabin…
If that isn’t enough to keep you entertained, the show also has a whole three-day seminar programme! The aim of the seminar theatre is to provide a space for you to learn from the experts about the key topics and issues that are currently in the Glamping sector. The seminars will provide you with a chance to listen, learn and ask any questions you may have alongside gleaming expert opinions on where the sector may be going in the future.
Our very own Emma Warren, Blackdown’s …, is one of these experts and can be found delivering a seminar on the 19th, at 3pm in Theatre 1. Emma will be discussing the new wellbeing trend that is making its way into the glamping world and why it matters for glamping operators – we would certainly recommend popping along to this one if you can! The seminars are, like the event, free to attend and require no booking but they can get busy so it’s best to plan ahead and get there a little earlier for a good seat!

If we have tempted you to attend this years Glamping Show, be it one day or all three, you may be considering staying in the area. We wanted to let you know that The Glamping Show offers on site camping (sadly not glamping!) if you would like to pitch a tent or bring your camper van. If camping already takes up a lot of your time, maybe you would prefer to treat yourself to a hotel room? The Glamping Show have partnered up with specialist accommodation agency Event Express to provide discounted hotel accommodation and flexible cancellation policies exclusively for The Glamping Show attendees. View the available hotels and book your room here.
And that’s a wrap for all your low down and need to know information for this years Glamping Show!
We hope to see you there!
