In total 130 brands will exhibit across two sold-out halls, and the highly acclaimed Professional Development Programme will run alongside the event, providing visitors with free access to over 20 seminars and product demonstrations.
Director of Events Chris Toulmin comments: "This year will see the expansion of the Professional Development Programme in Leeds, providing visitors with more sessions to choose from than ever before, all delivered by respected industry figures."
Last year's show attracted over 2500 members of the North's theatre and event production community, and organisers PLASA Events expect to see this increase, as has been the trend year on year since the shows inception in 2009. The informal atmosphere the show is renowned for will remain in place, with free refreshments and socialising areas, making PLASA Focus: Leeds 2014 the ideal place to network, do business and meet new people.
