Organisers of PATS 2025, which will take place at the NEC Birmingham for the first time, said excitement is building as companies book their stands ahead of the event next September.
The Pet & Aquatics Trade Show will be staged in Hall 1 of the NEC over three days from Sunday, September 28, through to Tuesday, September 30, 2025.
Following a record-breaking PATS 2024, which saw the largest ever increase in both exhibitor and visitor numbers, the 2025 event is set to offer companies even more opportunities as it moves to the UK’s largest exhibition centre.
Next year’s show will be able to accommodate up to 500 UK and international exhibitors at PATS 2025.
Event director Gordon Thomas said the 2025 show looks set to attract more visitors than the record number of 3,541 at PATS 2024, thanks to the NEC’s central location.
“There is huge interest in PATS 2025 with exhibitors eager to book their stand space as early as possible, and many brands looking to take larger stands than previous years,” Mr Thomas said.
“In welcoming the move, exhibitors have told us they think the NEC offers greater opportunities to showcase their products and services to a far wider audience.”
