HOTELYMPIA 2018
The UK’s leading hospitality event returns to London in March (March 5-8, ExCeL
London) with the introduction of four new, exciting and contemporary shows,
united under one roof, as part of a fresh new identity.
Each of the four new shows will be specialist events in themselves, benefitting
from the ‘Hotelympia-effect’ – a market-leading brand with the heritage to attract
over 30,000 visitors, many of whom possess six-figure spending muscle.
In modernising its approach, a revitalised Hotelympia will reaffirm its position as
the industry’s must-attend showcase event for every hospitality business.
The Professional Kitchen Show
The Professional Kitchen Show is set to offer 2018’s very first and most
comprehensive view of everything new in catering equipment and kitchen design.
Backed by key manufacturing and wholesale groups, it welcomes over 150
dedicated exhibitors to the show floor – the largest gathering of its kind in the UK.
Over a dozen of the UK’s most exciting chefs including Dan Doherty, executive
chef at 24-hour restaurant Duck and Waffle and Michelin star chef Paul Ainsworth,
of Paul Ainsworth at Number 6 in Padstow, will also be in attendance, offering up
interactive cooking demos on The Staff Canteen Live.
Interiors and Tableware Show
The Interiors and Tableware Show will offer visitors an array of innovative
suppliers – including pioneering design houses and interior specialists – and
experiential features backed by specially-commissioned insight.
Hotelympia has partnered with SquareMeal, the market-leading independent
restaurant guide, to help uncover what constitutes the Ultimate Dining
Experience. The results will be brought to life in a unique experiential installation
at the show with the help of property-based design, project management and
development company, LXA.
