What to wear

Whilst we don't have an official dress code we suggest business casual - dress as you feel comfortable.

Wear comfy shoes

You’ll also do a surprising amount of walking at The Meetings Show. Between leaving your accommodation, walking between sessions and attending networking events, you may well be on your feet all day. Make sure you wear shoes which are comfortable and won't cause you pain.

Don't forget your business cards

You’re at The Meetings Show to learn AND network, so challenge yourself to connect with at least three new people every day.

Stay hydrated

Whilst at the show it's important that you take some time to rest and remember to stay hydrated. You'll find plenty of seating areas inside the show as well as locations to top up your water bottle throughout the day.
