Retailers and buyers will be given the opportunity to source equestrian products as well as pet and aquatic lines when trade exhibitions PATS and BETA International co-locate to the NEC Birmingham in September 2025.
PATS and BETA International will run side by side in Halls 1 and 2 at the NEC respectively on Sunday September 28 and Monday September 29, 2025. PATS will also continue for a third day on Tuesday September 30.
The NEC is the UK’s largest exhibition centre, centrally located close to junction 6 of the M42 with direct rail links to major cities as well as having Birmingham International Airport nearby. Buyers will be able to engage with a broad spectrum of suppliers in the pet, aquatics, equestrian and country sectors during their visit to the NEC, with PATS set to attract over 400 exhibitors and BETA International over 250.
Both exhibitions will retain their most popular features at this year’s events. The Aquatics Zone will return to PATS after a successful launch in 2024, while the New Starter Zone will host a growing number of start-up businesses.
Both shows will feature a New Product Showcase, while PATS will be presenting grooming demonstrations and workshops. BETA International will feature talks by leading equestrian figures in the seminar theatre.
Registration for free entry to both events will open in March, and visitors will only have to register once to visit both shows.
