A new regional trade event, the Elevate Trade Show, will take place in Bournemouth this March, bringing together suppliers, industry specialists and local businesses for a day focused on practical, innovative and sustainable solutions for the hospitality, catering, cleaning and care sectors.
The Elevate Trade Show will be held on Wednesday 11 March 2026 from 10:00am to 4:30pm at Vitality Stadium, home of AFC Bournemouth. The event is free to attend and open to professionals working across hospitality, contract catering, commercial cleaning, care, and education.
Organised by Hampshire based supplier Comax UK, the event has been designed in direct response to the real challenges businesses face today, including rising operational costs, maximising sustainability, staffing constraints, and the need to work more efficiently without adding complexity.
Unlike traditional trade shows, Elevate will run across three identical timed sessions during the day: morning, midday and afternoon entry slots. Attendees will select their preferred session when registering, enabling smaller group sizes, meaningful interactions with exhibitors, hands-on product demonstrations, and better access to short breakout sessions without overcrowding.
What Attendees Can Expect
- Interactive Product Demonstrations: See the latest product innovations and technologies brought to life with live demonstrations and practical walkthroughs.
- New Product Previews: Preview new to market products across cleaning, catering and hospitality sectors.
- Breakout Sessions: Attend expert led sessions on specific topics including sustainability and supporting mental health in the workplace.
- Supplier Insights & Advice: Engage with dozens of leading supplier partners to discuss challenges, products and best practice solutions.
- Sustainability Focus: Access practical tools and advice to support long-term sustainability goals, including reducing environmental impact while controlling costs.
Throughout the day, attendees can enjoy exclusive show offers and opportunities to connect directly with suppliers who offer real commercial value. Whether you operate a restaurant, hotel, pub, care home, education catering service, or contract cleaning business, Elevate is structured to help businesses stay ahead of the curve and find solutions that deliver substantial operational improvements.
A spokesperson for Comax UK said:
“Elevate is about making time well spent. We wanted to create an event that feels genuinely useful, where people can see products properly, ask honest questions, and come away with ideas they can actually apply to their business.”
The event is free to attend, but places are limited and advance registration is required. Attendees are encouraged to book early to secure their preferred time slot.
