CHS Manchester has revealed further details of its launch show, announcing a major evolution of the show, designed to deliver a festival-style experience, a city- wide fringe programme, and a stronger national positioning.
The major new fringe programme has been developed in close collaboration with Manchester Convention Bureau, part of Marketing Manchester, and the AO Arena, as well as a growing list of industry partners. Running before, during, and after the main show, the fringe will extend the CHS Manchester experience beyond the exhibition floor and into the city itself.
The programme will bring together a series of simultaneous experiences designed to showcase Manchester’s strengths as a business events destination, including creativity, media, sustainability, and culture, creating rooms for visitors to arrive earlier, stay longer, and engage more deeply with the city.
