The Christmas Press Show will return to the Business Design Centre in London on 9 September for its ninth year, bringing prestigious brands and retailers together to showcase their newly launched festive ranges.

Organised by CIJ Group, the show will feature high street names including Maldon Salt, B&M, FOREO Beauty, Crayola, Revlon, Bloom & Wild, Menkind, Funko, Dobbies Garden Centres, The Entertainer and Morphy Richards, showcasing their Christmas products ahead of the golden quarter.

Courtney Rogers, founder and managing director of CIJ Group, said: “We are delighted to be opening the doors to the Christmas Press Show for a ninth year this September, at The Business Design Centre. It is an honour to be able to welcome over 50 brands and retailers to our exhibition to showcase their fantastic festive products ahead of the Christmas period.”

Connecting brands with the media

The show connects journalists, broadcast producers, influencers and talent managers with brands and retailers during the run-up to Christmas, a period Rogers described as a key time for retail brands as media decide which products to feature in Christmas gift guides. Last year’s edition drew more than 600 media attendees, with this year’s registrations now open.

Rogers added: “We offer top tier journalists and influencers a one-stop shop for all their Christmas must-haves and the opportunity to connect with brands face-to-face. We look forward to another successful year of the Christmas Press Show!”
