With so much going on, this year’s PG Live really will score the ‘perfect ten’!”

With exhibitors ranging from leading brands to boutique publishers and brand new artists, thousands of original, creative cards will be on display. Over 100 high-profile card publishers will be showing exclusively at PG Live this year, while more than 150 Springboarders will be showcasing the best up-and-coming talent in the industry.

In addition, a host of attention-grabbing highlights, competitions and special offers will ensure that PG Live continues to delight. These include Greats vouchers (worth £50 against an order placed at the show) which have again been given to this year’s Greats winners and finalists.

As arguably the most sociable show in the industry, PG Live will also be making it easy for buyers to have fun and focus solely on cards. Free refreshments, a complimentary lunch (sponsored by greeting card retailer Scribbler) and a free drinks party after the show on Tuesday will ensure that visitors can concentrate on taking advantage of the ‘show only’ offers.
PG Live will also be bringing the international greeting card industry together under one roof ensuring that they will be able to spot the upcoming trends.
