Craft, Hobby + Stitch International 2025
About the event
Update
Craft, Hobby + Stitch International 2025 will be held as a live trade exposition at NEC Birmingham. The hosting date for the event is set for February 23rd to February 24th, 2025. At present, the UK does not have travel restrictions.
A Brief Introduction
CHSI – Craft, Hobby + Stitches International – enjoys a leading position in the craft and hobby industry in the UK, and it is known as the country’s number one creative craft show. Editions tend to bring in over 6 000 buyers from all over the country and Europe on average. Those are specifically good numbers when you count that there are only 200 exhibiting firms on the show floor. If that sounds like a smart business investment, then you need to travel to the NEC in Birmingham, UK for your dose of sales opportunities.
An Industry Profile
The focus of CHSI is predominantly connecting exhibitors with buyers and as such it exists more as a procurement platform, which sees over 100,000 different products showcased under one roof. The trade fair offers the full breadth of products within craft and hobby – papers, beads, fabrics, instruments, clays, dough materials, painting supplies, and paints. Adding another layer to the experience is the busy support program. The Insights Hub is where you can discover educational resources aimed at running a successful business and new market trends, with workshop sessions running for a total of 50 hours.

Dear Tom,
Many thanks for your patience and support while we drew together all the spekars for our conference with their checking-in and checking-out dates. Everything went off exactly as planned and everyone was very happy with the hotel you recommended.
Thanks again,
Roger
Good morning,
Thank you very much for your services. We were very satisfied with the hotel.
The only problem was the lack of parking - we had to use offsite car parks. We need to take this into account in our future arrangements.
Pozdrawiam / Best regards

One of my colleagues tried to check in after 11pm using the self-service system it found is booking, asked him to enter my address, and then when pressed to confirm it said it couldn’t process my check-in. This happened to another colleague arriving late due to flight delays -the system is unreliable/faulty, which is a particular issue when the check-in desk is unmanned. Both had to use the hotel's emergency number. Overall the hotel was clean and service was ok.
Great organisation, service and availability of GoFair Staff! Situation of the hotel in Geneva was perfect!
Thank you Megan for everything, all went well and we had no problems with the late check in

Dear Tom,
This was for A+A 2023. Your customer service is very good. Fast, nice and polite. But the price per night seems quite high...
Hi Tom,
Thank you for your continued support throughout out booking process and even afterwards 😊
The stay was great, and I will be sure to keep in touch for future bookings.
Thanks again,
Rachael
