First Time Exhibiting? Why The Surrey Business Expo 2026 Is the Perfect Place to Start
If you’ve ever thought about exhibiting your business but felt unsure where to begin, The Surrey Business Expo 2026 could be the ideal first step.
Taking place on 29th April 2026 at the iconic Sandown Park in Surrey, this one-day event is designed to help local businesses connect, grow, and raise their profile – and it’s especially welcoming for first-time exhibitors.

A Locally Organised, Professionally Run Business Event
The Surrey Business Expo is a locally organised yet professionally delivered event, created specifically to support the Surrey business community. That means you’re not lost in a huge national exhibition – instead, you’re part of a focused, well-structured event that puts real business connections first.
From booking your stand through to event day, exhibitors benefit from clear communication, experienced organisers, and a supportive environment that makes exhibiting straightforward and stress-free.
Plenty of Support for First-Time Exhibitors
Never exhibited before? You’re not alone – and you’re not expected to know everything.
There is plenty of support available for first-time exhibitors, including guidance on:
- Choosing the right stand package
- Making your stand attractive and effective
- Promoting your presence before the event
- Making the most of conversations on the day
Easy and Cost-Effective to Exhibit
One of the biggest misconceptions about exhibitions is that they’re expensive and complicated. At The Surrey Business Expo 2026, that couldn’t be further from the truth.
Exhibiting is:
- Simple and easy to set up
- Highly cost-effective
- Stand prices from less than £500
For a modest marketing spend, you gain face-to-face access to a large, relevant audience in just one day.
Reach Over 500 Surrey Companies in One Day
The Expo is expected to welcome around 1,000 visitors, representing over 500 Surrey-based companies – all in one venue, on one day.
As an exhibitor, you’ll have the chance to:
- Promote your products and services directly
- Start real conversations with decision-makers
- Generate leads and follow-up opportunities
- Build local partnerships and collaborations
Few marketing activities allow you to reach so many targeted businesses so quickly and efficiently.
Build Brand Awareness and Visibility
Even if visitors aren’t ready to buy immediately, exhibiting is a powerful way to:
- Improve brand awareness
- Increase credibility and trust
- Get your business seen and remembered
Face-to-face interaction creates a far stronger impression than digital marketing alone, giving you excellent value for your investment.
Networking and Specialist Talks Throughout the Day
The Surrey Business Expo 2026 isn’t just about exhibition stands. Throughout the day, there will be:
- Dedicated networking sessions
- Specialist business talks
- Opportunities to learn, share ideas, and connect beyond your stand
This means you’ll benefit not only from visitors coming to you, but also from actively meeting other business owners and professionals in a relaxed, business-focused setting.
Why Sandown Park?
The venue itself adds to the experience. Sandown Park is one of Surrey’s most iconic and accessible locations, offering a professional atmosphere that reflects the quality of the event and the businesses exhibiting there.
