Equipment Hire for The Baby Show

The Baby Show at the NEC Birmingham draws parents-to-be, new parents, and family visitors looking for prams, nursery furniture, clothing, nutrition products, and parenting advice. Exhibitors range from major baby brand retailers to smaller independent specialists. The audience shops with intent, which means how your stand looks directly affects how long visitors stay and whether they buy.

Our EventPro® furniture is designed for the hire trade. It holds its appearance across multi-day consumer shows without the wear that retail furniture accumulates after a few hours of continuous handling. Institutions including the BBC and major banks trust our stock for high-profile events, and that same quality is available for your Baby Show stand.

Product Display Surfaces

Prams, cots, car seats, and nursery accessories all require stable, well-lit display surfaces at appropriate heights. Our table hire range provides plain-topped options from small side units to full trestle configurations. Dress with a fitted tablecloth in white or pastel-friendly neutral tones to match baby brand aesthetics. For valuable items, our showcase display cabinets provide locked glass-fronted display overnight and during quiet periods.

Seating for Visitors and Demos

Parents visiting The Baby Show often spend extended time on the stand testing products. Providing comfortable seating - a sofa or upholstered chairs around a coffee table - encourages visitors to sit down, try out products, and have a proper conversation with your team. For workshop or demonstration areas, stacking banqueting chairs in rows keep the space flexible between sessions.

Feeding, Sampling, and Catering

Baby food brands, nutritional supplement producers, and drink companies exhibiting at The Baby Show frequently offer samples. Our catering equipment hire covers hot water boilers for formula preparation demos, under-counter fridges for chilled sample storage, and crockery for serving. Our Send It Back Dirty policy covers all tableware - pack used items in our crates and we collect them with everything else.

About the NEC

he National Exhibition Centre is located in Marston Green, Solihull close to both Birmingham International Airport and Birmingham International railway station. Opened in 1978, it has gone through various expansions and improvements to become the internationally renowned exhibition space it is today.

The NEC has a total of 20 interconnected halls offering a total of 190,000 square metres (2 million square feet) of floor space. There are 16,500 parking spaces spread out around the site, with a shuttle bus operating to and from all the car parks. Construction of the HS2 railway project will see a new railway station at Birmingham Interchange built close to the NEC and connected to the exhibition centre by a people mover.

Along with the Resorts World Arena, which is located on the NEC site, the National Exhibition Centre is operated by the NEC Group. The NEC Group also owns and operates Arena Birmingham and ICC Birmingham based in central Birmingham. Previously owned by Birmingham City Council, the NEC Group was sold to private investors in 2015 and is now owned by American investment company Blackstone.

At Expo Hire, we can appreciate the stress involved with setting up and breaking down a stand at an important exhibition and we want to do everything we can to help prevent it. We can deliver exhibition hire directly to your stand – simply confirm your event, hall and stand number when placing your order and we will do the rest.
