Industry prepares for Jewson Live
Published: 21 November 2019 - John King
Jewson Live is returning to the National Exhibition Centre (NEC) in Birmingham, UK, for a fifth year this December.
With over 2,600 tradespeople coming through the doors in 2018, Jewson Live promises a busy calendar of events planned for Thursday 12 December from competitions to product demonstrations and deals, and a programme of speakers.
Among those taking to the stage to share their knowledge, insight and general life hacks will be TalkSport’s Laura Woods, Darren Gough and Adrian Durham, as well as Dave Lee from Fundamental Life, with the whole event fronted by sports personality Chris Kamara, who is hosting the event for the third year in a row.
Jewson Live 2019 will also tackle the debate of who is the 'Master of All Trades', as visitors go head-to-head on a custom-built assault course to be crowned top trade. Will it be the brickies who cement their place in the final or the chippies who carve their name at the top of the leaderboard?
Over 150 top brands will be exhibiting across the event, offering visitors insight into new products to make their lives easier. They will also be showcasing exclusive, on-the-day deals for all those building essentials.
A new addition to this year’s Jewson Live will be the Get Ahead Hub, a hub offering tradespeople advice on everything from dealing with cashflow, to building a website, building regulations and using social media.
The event is completely free to attend, with breakfast and lunch served on-site.
