About Exhibiting
The BIG Futures Show returns on Tuesday 29 April 2025.
The Show is the largest employability and skills event in the area and is aimed at students (aged 14+) from across East Sussex as well as parents and anyone looking for work or training. The Show brings employers and educators face to face with tomorrow’s workforce at a time when they are making big decisions about their futures.
Student visitors have to decide what to do next in a year or so. They will be looking for jobs that they would like to do and employers that they want to work for. They will be asking about what qualifications they need and how do they achieve them? Do they look for an apprenticeship and/or do they go onto higher education and enter the workplace as a graduate?
BFS 2025 provides a unique opportunity for you to reach out and contribute to the development of the workforce of the future, to influence its direction and to gain exposure to it.
The show is organised by Eastbourne Education Business Partnership in association with Eastbourne Borough Council and sponsoring partners. Some 85+ organisations are expected to attend providing both an interactive and inspirational experience for visitors. Student visitors from schools will benefit from additional preparation materials beforehand. The venue will be at Eastbourne Sports Park.
BFS 2025 will provide a range of sponsorship and exhibitor options to suit individual budgets (conditions will apply).
- Partner sponsorship with increased exposure associated with the event.
- Individual item sponsorship such as catering. Please call for further details.
- Basic 2mx2m exhibitor space that can be increased for an additional charge.
- Special rates for Youth Radio supporters and registered charities.
