BALI rounds out the year in style at FutureScape 2018
With over 170 exhibitors supporting this year’s FutureScape 2018, BALI was in good company as the show continues to grow into one of the UK’s largest landscaping events, proving a real tour-de-force for the wider landscape industry. Amazingly, still held over one day, the free-to-attend event managed to pack-in a considerable amount of content, with several seminar theatres host to a plethora of specialist talks, industry debates and launches, including the popular 30 Under 30.
Over 60 BALI Registered members were exhibiting in the main Surrey Hall, showcasing a range of products and services designed to add quality and value to any landscaping project. From plants to water features, design services to hard landscaping materials, the show had it covered.
BALI was represented by three team members; Marketing and Communications Manager Darren Taylor, Education Officer Stephen Ensell and Chief Executive Wayne Grills. With over 100 stand interactions and over 20 new membership enquiries, the team were kept busy throughout the day. This year, BALI reported an influx of garden designers looking to join the association, as news spread that the latest series of webinars and designer-focused regional events have caught the attention of some of the country’s leading practices.
Encouragingly, there was also a healthy gathering of students enquiring about GoLandscape and looking for advice on career pathways following completion of their respective courses.
Following a successful 2018, BALI has already rebooked for next year and is proud to continue to support one of the industry’s premier landscaping events.
