Sponsorship Opportunities at Professional Woodworking Expo 2026

 

on site

The Professional Woodworking Expo is the largest event in the UK dedicated to the industry, bringing over 6,000 Woodworking professionals to the NEC Birmingham.

It is the only place in the country you can spend three days face to face with key decision makers from Furniture Manufacturers, Kitchen Bedroom &
Bathroom Manufacturers, bespoke cabinet makers, carpenters, joiners, Factory/workshop Managers, shop re-fitters and installers.

Making the most of a show really begins before it even starts. From the feedback we’ve had and what we’ve seen work well, those who take the time to plan some activity before and after the event often see better results and a stronger return on their investment.
