Printwear & Promotion LIVE! is where the industry comes alive. Taking place from Sunday, February 21 to Tuesday, February 23, no other exhibition in the UK offers garment decorators the chance to see and experience first hand live demonstrations of cutting edge pieces of equipment, and to touch and feel the newest blank garments to hit the market.



Tony Gardner, event director, said: “Printwear is a tactile industry. No matter how good AI and digital become, nothing can replace a live event where the industry comes together to see, touch and feel new products. The latest innovations are always on display with the launch of new technology, making P&P LIVE! the only platform that allows visitors to see it all and choose how to advance their business in the year ahead.

“The buzz at the 2026 event was incredible and the show highlighted how much momentum there is in the garment decoration industry. What stood out most to several of our exhibitors was the level of engagement; visitors weren’t just browsing; they came with real questions about how new technology can help them grow their businesses and to make purchasing decisions.

“There was one exhibitor quote that really stood out for me: ‘The conversations we had over three days were some of the most energising we've ever had at a trade show’. It is not an overstatement to say that Printwear & Promotion LIVE! is the place where the industry comes alive, and we are really looking forward to living up to that again for the three show days in February!”
