Delegates can look forward to a packed trade exhibition at the Celtic Connections Conference, always an important and integral part of the whole conference experience. It is a great opportunity to meet suppliers and find out more about the latest developments across a range of sectors.

We are delighted to present this year a number of demonstrations from our platinum sponsors.

In addition to the exhibitors, we look forward to seeing a number of trade representatives in attendance.

To celebrate the exhibition we have a great competition for conference delegates. Simply pay a visit to all the exhibition stands and be in with a chance to WIN two tickets to one of the next Six Nations’ rugby matches at Cardiff’s Millennium Stadium!
