Break down
#DesignPopUp exhibitions are open to visitors for two days packed full of inspiration, education, and unmissable discussion, networking and product discovery from top specification brands like yours.
The event format maximises your time spent engaging with visiting architects, designers, and specifiers, eradicates any wasted hours at set up and break down, and reduces expenses.
Attended by a who’s who of architects, designers, specifiers, contractors and developers from the significant UK practices, #DesignPopUp events have become synonymous with quality, innovation, creativity and opportunity.
It’s the perfect platform to showcase and launch your collections. #DesignPopUp events offer an alternative experience, allowing potential customers to touch, feel, sit-on, stand and experience your products first-hand – bringing your showroom to their doorstep.
Hosted in magnificent, restored period buildings from by-gone eras, #DesignPopUp stays true to the celebration of architecture and design that runs through the core of its events. These world-class events, held over 2 days, deliver an exciting, innovative platform for exhibitors to showcase their products in a relaxed, welcoming, and synergistic environment.
“Crosswater has been exhibiting at #DPU now for the past five years. It’s proved to be the best exhibition to network with key businesses.
Lead generation is excellent. I’d definitely recommend #DesignPopUp events to anyone in this field. The whole experience is very easy — the venues, dates, and marketing materials have proved to be very beneficial to connect our brand with customers.”
