• A Place in the Sun Live confirms two-date calendar for 2006

Brooklands Group has confirmed dates for A Place in the Sun Live 2006 – the world’s biggest overseas property exhibitions – and a change in venue for the autumn show, moving from London’s ExCeL to Birmingham’s NEC.

A remarkable debut year has seen A Place in the Sun Live break all industry records in establishing itself as the biggest overseas property exhibitions in the world and scooping Best Launch Exhibition at the prestigious Event Awards. Now show organiser Brooklands Exhibitions – a division of Brooklands Group – has confirmed a 2006 spring show at ExCeL London from 7th-9th April and an autumn event from 29th September-1st October at NEC, Birmingham.

2006: two shows, two centres, two great opportunities

Says Darren Styles, Chief Executive of Brooklands Group:

“We have had an incredible first year with A Place in the Sun Live: two fantastic shows crowned by a major award win. But we won’t rest, for however good it’s been there’s always room for improvement.

So we look forward to introducing this headline event to a new audience in the Midlands and North at NEC Birmingham – and look forward to another great year in 2006.”
