15 BALPPA Events are always well patronised, you can also take up the opportunity to exhibit as well as sponsor at our event. The 2017 Annual Dinner played host to 160 attendees alone. Over 200 people attended the2017 Excellence Awards Dinner Nearly 500 people pre-registered for the 2017 Leisure, FEC & Indoor Play Trade Exhibition. This NEW event has been missed from the Leisure, FEC & Indoor Play Industry event schedule and we anticipate this will grow from strength to strength. The event aims to provide an innovative environment where operators, manufacturers, entrepreneurs, investors, inventors, play educators, play researchers and suppliers can connect. We are looking for exhibitors that will reflect the inspiring and relaxed atmosphere of this Trade and Awards event. If you are a supplier with an interesting new product to offer the Indoor Play Centre and Leisure Industry this is the place to be seen. Interested in becoming a BALPPA Member?
