Summer starts at SOLEX 2026 – register today

 

With just a few weeks to go until SOLEX 26 opens its doors, excitement is building for what promises to be another fantastic show.
 
Visitors can explore the generous, spacious aisles of Hall 5 at the NEC and discover the latest innovations from 51 of the UK’s leading outdoor leisure product suppliers.
 
SOLEX is the perfect opportunity to see, touch, feel, sit, and experience a whole range of exciting, on-trend new products that customers will be looking to purchase for 2027.
 
At SOLEX 26, visitors will be inspired by complete garden concepts rather than static product lines. Each setting is designed to reflect how people really use their outdoor spaces, from weeknight suppers and relaxed weekend gatherings to impromptu parties and quiet moments of downtime.
 
The realities of the British climate are tackled head-on throughout the show, with exhibitors presenting clever shelter and shade solutions, durable low-maintenance materials, outdoor heating and ideas for year-round comfort, helping outdoor kitchens, lounges and dining areas stay in action well beyond the peak summer months.
 
SOLEX 26 brings the very best of outdoor living together in one place, including furniture, fire, shade, kitchens, décor, heating and accessories, all showcased in a welcoming, friendly and inspiring atmosphere.
 
For retailers planning future ranges, designing store displays or curating online collections, SOLEX 26 is the outdoor living trade event not to be missed.

 

SOLEX – The Summer Outdoor Living Exhibition organised by the industry for the industry.
 7th - 9th July 2026 NEC, Birmingham
