SALTEX 2025
SALTEX returns to the NEC Birmingham on 12th–13th November 2025, powering up performance in grounds management
SALTEX is Europe’s premier event for the grounds management sector. Since 1938, it has been the place to discover the latest in sports turf, landscaping and grounds care whilst connecting with the people who are shaping the industry.
In 2024, more than 400 brands, over 7,300 attendees and 65 expert speakers came together to explore what's next. From turf tech breakthroughs to hands-on innovation, SALTEX brings the industry together to power up.
Whether you're new to the industry or bringing years of experience, SALTEX offers a unique opportunity to discover new machinery, sharpen your skills through the renowned Learning LIVE programme and connect with leaders from across the sector.
What Makes SALTEX Stand Out?
Visitors saw over 30 new products make their UK debut in 2024, reinforcing SALTEX as the industry's go-to platform for innovation.
Learning remains a cornerstone of the show. The Learning LIVE programme delivered more than 19 hours of education in 2024, with 65 speakers and over 1,000 attendees focused on professional development and raising industry standards.
The show continues to attract high-calibre visitors. In 2024, almost 80% of attendees were senior decision-makers. Premier League clubs including Liverpool FC, Chelsea FC, Manchester City, Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur were represented, alongside world-class venues such as Allianz Arena, Lord’s Cricket Ground, Red Bull Arena and Wembley Stadium.
The education sector also had a strong presence with attendees from Harrow School, Eton College, Myerscough College and Magdalen College School, as well as universities including Oxford, Cambridge, Leeds and Trinity College Dublin.
Local authorities and estates were well represented too, with last year's show welcoming grounds teams from Bristol City Council, Leeds City Council, Nottingham City Council, Sandringham and even The Royal Parks!

Grassroots sports continue to be a vital part of the industry, playing a crucial role in promoting health and community. SALTEX 2024 saw a
growing number of County Football
Associations in attendance, including London FA, Birmingham FA, Liverpool FA and Sheffield & Hallamshire FA.
New Halls, Same Great Show
SALTEX 2025 returns to its traditional November slot, better aligning with the grounds management calendar. The show moves to Halls 17, 18 and 19 at the NEC, introducing a refreshed layout designed to enhance the experience for visitors and exhibitors alike.
An Investment In The Industry
Organised by the Grounds Management Association (GMA), SALTEX is a not-for-profit event. Revenue from the show is reinvested directly into supporting the sector through subsidising membership fees and helping fund the GMA’s training courses and qualifications, both in-person and online.
Since 2009, income from SALTEX has also supported the GMA Industry Awards and #GroundsWeek, two initiatives that celebrate the vital work of grounds teams and inspire future talent.
SALTEX is where the industry meets to move forward, together.
