Four halls of the Harrogate Convention Centre are almost fully booked for Harrogate International Nursery Fair 2024 on 13-15 October, with the show’s fifth hall, Hall Q, set to house some new developments.

The latest key signing for the new Hall Q is Tutti Bambini, which will present its range of nursery furniture alongside bedtime, mealtime and other baby essentials. In addition, the show has announced a Baby Boutique Village, a special arena to showcase the latest in baby layette, clothing, textiles and gifts.

Nicola Perring of The Nest, a consultancy that advises the maternity, baby and children’s product market and specialises in clothing and textiles, comments on the new show area. “When I read about the new Baby Boutique Village at the show, I was delighted.

“We collaborate with lots of small companies that specialise in baby layette – items such as newborn suits, swaddles, bootees, vests, hats and scratch mittens – as well as baby clothing, textiles and gifts, so the Baby Boutique Village will provide the perfect launchpad for these clients.

“We are particularly keen to promote ethically sourced, environmentally friendly products, which are for the children who will inherit the legacy we will leave on our planet, and we hope to encourage our clients to participate in this year’s show.”

Also commenting is the show’s organiser, Adrian Sneyd.

“Harrogate has gone from strength to strength in recent years and there has been a notable increase in the number of exhibitors with clothing and textiles ranges, so there is clearly demand for these types of products. We hope that the Baby Boutique Village will add a new and welcome dynamic to the show.”

Exhibitor space is available in Hall Q for all nursery businesses. However, those interested in the Baby Boutique Village will receive an introductory 10% discount. For more information on Harrogate International Nursery Fair 2024, please click here or contact adrian@nurseryfair.com.
