Visitors can try out several signage techniques during this year’s inaugural event including neon glass-bending
Visitors to The Sign Show this week are being invited to try their hand at everything from vehicle and architectural wrapping to neon bending and sign writing.
While exhibitors and their new solutions will the primary focus of attendees, three special areas located across The Sign Show section of hall 3 at the NEC will offer added value in the form of interactive experiences.
First, the School of Wrap, the centrepiece of The Sign Show 2025, will allow visitors to view live demonstrations of wrapping across vehicles and architectural pieces. CVi Group, All Print Supplies, SPACE Architectural Interiors, Fedrigoni and FESPA UK will all jointly run this area at the show.
Live demos will take place all day, every day, while visitors can try out wrapping themselves, under the watchful eyes of the some of the most talented and well-respected wrappers in the UK. In addition, FESPA UK will be on hand to recycle any waste material generated from demos and experiences, with visitors able to learn more about its Waste Accreditation initiative.
Elsewhere, a highlight of the debut show will be Neon Insights, which, being led by the Neon Creations team, will shine a light on the wonderful world of neon signs. Those in attendance can find out more about neon signage and their ongoing legacy in the industry, as well as try out neon bending for themselves – all with guidance from Neon Creations.
Finally, the Traditional Sign-Making Masterclass will showcase the techniques that helped shape the modern market. David Mearna of Signmode will offer live demos of sign writing, screen printing on a flat table and on walls, and both water and transfer leaf gilding, while visitors can have a go at sign writing on white emulsion boards.
In addition to this, visitors to The Sign Show can head across the hall into The Print Show and explore the Knowledge Zone, which this year is again packed with a line-up of speakers, each set to deliver insightful sessions on major talking points.
“We’re committed to delivering an event that not only help match sign and print companies with the solutions that will help evolve their businesses but also allow them to take away with them advice and information that can support them in the long run,” explains event director Chris Davies.
