IJL Moves to Olympia in 2014. Why Olympia?.
E N D
Why Olympia? • Olympia provides us with more space and using the Grand and West Halls gives us two floors with a stunning gallery area. We have the capacity to grow by over 50%, which enables us to go forward with plans to launch new parts of the show we have been unable to do thus far.
Benefits of Olympia • Same area as Earls court, approx. 1 mile away. • Beautiful building allowing lots of natural light, ideal for jewellery. • Upper level has been refurbished creating a new fresh area for exhibitors. • More space allows us to create luxurious feature areas such as a large champagne bar and a 5* restaurant.
What's new for IJL 2014? • IJL will become a three day event from 2014. With a limited number of good venues to choose from in central London, sticking with the timeline of the 1st week in September was more important for IJL than the number of open days of the show. • We will increase the opening hours with a ‘late night shopping’ evening on the Sunday and a full days business on the final day - a Tuesday.
Benefits of a 3 day event • We will deliver the same, if not more visitors over a shorter period therefore creating a busier 3 days. • Suppliers have less time out of the office, resulting in lower accommodation costs and the ability to be back on the road or in their stores doing business.
