Heading to Harrogate

With just two days to go until the UK’s favourite festive trade show – Harrogate Christmas & Gift – retailers heading to the North Yorkshire town of Harrogate from across the UK are in for a real treat. The show offers more new exhibitors than ever before, displaying exciting and diverse product ranges. Don’t forget to check out the full Exhibitor List – here’s a snapshot of what you can expect to see during your visit.

New lighting technology

Retailers visiting the 2015 show can look forward to SnowTime’s QuickLight technology: pre-lit hinged trees that no longer require a wiring connection between tree sections. Quite simply, electrical connections are made and the tree lights instantaneously when the central pole is slotted together. It’s a perfect solution for those customers who don’t want to sacrifice style over convenience. SnowTime’s QuickLight technology offers two great looking artificial trees with the added advantage of reduced assembly: The luxury Manitoba Spruce; a slim conical-shaped tree with densely packed branches and the premium Ashley Fir; with moulded PE outer branches that look and feel like the real thing. Visit SnowTime on Stand D11.

Firework spectacular

You may already know about Sparkle and Light’s amazing 3D Christmas glasses – well, now Bonfire Night, New Year’s Eve and any fireworks celebration will be even more spectacular with its brand new 3D Fireworks Glasses. Already a huge hit in the USA, more than 200 million people have viewed fireworks displays wearing these glasses.

The Fireworks Glasses include holographic diffraction lenses that break light into amazing rainbow bursts; and with a typical retail price of £1.49 a pair, the compact desktop POS provides a great impulse buy and sits perfectly on your fireworks display counter. The standard retailer pack includes the POS display plus 150 pairs of glasses, shipped direct to your mainland UK address. Come and visit Sparkle and Light’s stand C21 and see for yourself!
