Show Features

Other than a mass of new products on display, here's what else you can expect from the event.

Slide & OTS Winter Awards

Exhibitors are invited to enter their best products, with the winners being announced and presented at the end of Day 2 of the show, on Wednesday 11th January. Finalists will be on display throughout the show, with retailers, media and industry opinion-leaders judging the winners in most of the categories.

We partnered with Protect Our Winters UK for the Eco Award, which was judged by an expert from POW UK.

Entries for the 2023 Awards will open late autumn, but scroll down to view the 2022 Winners.
