Yesterday was the first day of the BIGGA Turf Management Exhibition and Pauline Thompson event organiser tweeted that it was a “great first day @ #HarrogateWeek with 3009 visitors through the doors, I think that's a record!” With that in mind I’m really looking forwards to what I’m going to see there....

The BIGGA Turf Management Exhibition (BTME) is regarded as Europe's leading showcase for turf and grounds care professionals. The event this year is taking place from 24 - 26 January 2012 at Harrogate International Centre, and is now in its 24th consecutive year. Visitors to the exhibition will find information on a wide range of products from artificial grass to grounds care machinery and alongside this BIGGA are hosting 54 educational workshops and seminars over five days.

So today, myself and northern area manager Mark Waite met sales director Chris Pickles and had a look at what BIGGA had to offer.

We also had a great chat with the Institute of Groundsmanship and found out more about their new website with maintenance information for synthetic surfaces - visit www.iogsynthetics.co.uk to find out more.
