Event City to host Ideal Home Shows

EVENTS organiser Media10 will be bringing Ideal Home Show concepts to the North West next year.

Held at Event City, the out-of-town venue next to the Trafford Centre, Ideal Home Show Manchester will take place next June (6-8) and Ideal Home Show at Christmas will welcome visitors from November 21 to 23.

It will be the first Ideal Home Show events stages in the region – previously it has only been to London and Scotland.

Both Manchester events will be based on the format of the Earls Court shows in the capital, with interactive features and more than 300 exhibitors offering unique products and inspiration for the home.
 
Organisers hope to lure more than 35,000 visitors to each show.

Lee Newton, Managing Director of Media 10 said: “Media 10 continues to build on the success of the Ideal Home Show brand and we are proud to be able to bring this unique and award winning show to Manchester’
 
The two new shows will take inspiration from the award winning Ideal Home Show which has welcomed more than 60 million visitors through its doors since 1908.

The Ideal Home Show Manchester will feature seven dedicated sections in Event City, visitors can shop from Interiors, Kitchens and Bathrooms, DIY, Food, Technology, Gardens and Fashion.

Andy Orr, managing director of Event City said: “I believe that Media 10 have set a benchmark with the quality and spectacle of their exhibitions, and when this is aligned with Event City’s free car parking, superb transport infrastructure and customer-facing approach, the partnership will deliver a truly outstanding show.

“Securing these two iconic brands has further cemented Event City as the premier exhibition centre in the North West.”
