Pool & Spa Scene: UK POOL & SPA EXPO
New Spa Unveiled The Vita Spa team put on an outstanding display for the new show at the NEC. “We’d decided a long time before that we’d put some real effort into this new show and it paid off,” said Vita’s Graham Savage. “Our guys built an amazing new stand
from scratch to promote the new model the Fontaine Spa and together with an offi cial unveiling with Industry guru Christina Connor and Richard Hart from Vita Spas at 12pm on the fi rst day it make a big splash,” Graham said. “Nobody in the industry had ever done an unveiling before so another fi rst for Vita Spa,” and he adds: “Roll on the even bigger show in 2014.”

Proud To Play Their Part
With a prominent stand at the front of the show, the Artesian team was kept busy throughout all three show days. “We feel the show was a huge success and we were proud to be a part of it,” comments Artesian’s Vicky Wrigglesworth. “There was a great atmosphere at the show with all companies from the different stands coming together in the communal drinks area to talk about how they were fi nding the show, which I’ve never experienced before. “It promoted an enthusiastic atmosphere which visitors really picked up on. I have to say, I enjoyed this show very much. We have already booked our stand for next year and we are extremely looking forward to it.” Artesian Spas UK Ltd Tel: +44 (0) 1302 730 295

at the NEC. The dates for the show have been moved to the end of February to run alongside ‘The Spring Caravan & Camping Show’ offering extra pulling power for both consumers and holiday park operators.
On-show features such as ‘business to business’ areas and ‘new product zones’ will run again and be joined by other new initiatives which will be announced throughout the year. After show activities like the UK Pool & Spa Awards will return bigger and better with preferential hotel rates being confi rmed too. The fi rst two days of the event were dedicated to trade- only visitors but the fi nal day was opened to the public with last day numbers being boosted by the consumer visitors. Several exhibitors adjusted their displays and arranged for retail customers to help staff the stands to maximise the potential of the consumer focus. This winning formula will be replicated next year.
“Running UK Pool & Spa Expo at The NEC was the obvious venue for a professional, UK event – something this industry needed and had long been missing,” comments Events Director, Claire Saunders.
