Professional Woodworking Expo to host two exhibitor webinars

Professional Woodworking Expo (PWE) is inviting exhibitors and prospective participants to join two dedicated webinars in March, offering practical guidance and a first look at the show’s future direction.

Taking place on Tuesday 24 March (10:00am – 11:00am), the first session is designed as a pre-show briefing to help exhibitors maximise their return on investment. Attendees will gain practical tips on how to attract more visitors to their stand, spark meaningful conversations, and convert those interactions into measurable business opportunities.

The webinar will also provide an exclusive preview of what’s in store for PWE 2026, including new show features and updates to the floor layout. In addition, exhibitors will receive key logistical information and have the opportunity to ask questions ahead of the event.

A second webinar follows on Wednesday 25 March (10:00am – 11:00am), focusing on the next chapter for Professional Woodworking Expo under its new management.

This session will outline the future plans for the show, including its new co-location with InstallerSHOW and the Painting & Decorating Show. The combined event will create a larger platform, bringing together professionals from across construction, interiors, and finishing trades.

Attendees will learn about planned changes to the event, how it is set to evolve in the coming years, and the new opportunities this expanded format will offer. The webinar is open to both existing exhibitors and companies considering taking part, providing a clear overview of the show’s growth and direction.

Both sessions are free to attend and will be hosted online.
