Glee 2026 unveils dynamic industry programme
Glee 2026 is shaping up to be one of the most valuable events on the garden retail calendar, with organisers unveiling an ambitious content programme designed to inspire, inform and support businesses across the sector.
Taking place at the NEC Birmingham from 8–10 September, the exhibition will once again combine Europe's biggest buying opportunity with an extensive seminar programme featuring leading retailers, industry experts and business specialists.
Among the headline speakers is Dobbies CEO David Robinson, who will discuss leadership, business transformation and the future of garden retail. Sessions from the HTA, MorePeople, Squire's Garden Centres and Hillier will also explore market trends, recruitment, sustainability, productivity and commercial growth.
Visitors can also discover the latest innovations through the returning Glee New Products Showcase, offering an early look at new launches and retail solutions expected to influence the seasons ahead. Popular features, including Michael Perry's Future Plants Walking Tour, also return.
The dedicated Feed Your Business Stage will focus on the growing importance of food and hospitality within garden centres, with practical advice covering everything from menu development and restaurant design to customer experience and operational efficiency.
