Giving & Living


Giving & Living is the biggest Home & Gift trade show in the South West, and is the biggest regional show of its kind. It is THE show for buyers from retail outlets and attractions on or near the Coast, and for those that are keen to order coastal merchandise to target the holidaymaker. The show has always had a fine selection of products ideal for this market and, new for this year, the show will have its very own Coastal Path which will lead you around the show to find the exhibitors that are perfect for your business.

Special show features include a Newcomer’s area especially for first time exhibitors. The show offers special rates for companies that have never before exhibited at a trade show giving them an excellent opportunity to showcase their products to retailers. It’s a great opportunity to spot emerging new companies and products before anyone else. The Designed & Made in Britain area is dedicated to unusual products of high quality with a distinct local flavour.

Giving and Living has it all. From gifts that can be personalised for your venue, to those that reflect the UK’s unique heritage, there’s a huge range of gifts & homewares, on show. Giving and Living presents an unrivalled selection of products for retail buyers, from bags to books, cards to clothing, maps to mugs, soaps to sculpture, at a wide range of price points. Whether retailers are from large tourist attractions looking for high volume, or small independent outlets looking for that little something that is unique and different, Giving & Living will deliver.

The 2017 show, which takes place at the Westpoint Exhibition Centre, Exeter, and runs from Sunday 15th January to Wednesday 18th January, will bring together up to 250 exhibitors and 3000+ retail buyers. With two halls to explore, and four days in which to do so, Giving & Living makes buying an enjoyable experience.
