Angels Open Days: The Verdict

Emma Angel, director of Angels Fancy Dress, Angels Distribution and organisational mastermind behind the Angels Open Days, reveals her thoughts about how the three-day show went.

Emma spoke to PartyWorldwide.net at the end of the Angels Open Days event (25 – 27 March), revealing how the event has brought suppliers together and helped exhibitors reach new retailers.

“It’s been really busy,” said Emma, “really successful. We’ve had lots of people in and we’ve had people from all over – we’ve even had a handful of people coming from Europe.”

Emma also revealed that the visitor profile was a varied combination of extablished retailers and new names. “I think the nice thing about it is that everybody here brings their existing customers – but they might not be someone else’s existing customers, so they pick up new business. It works really nicely.”

This year was the second event and Emma is keen to continue for 2019 as well. “People really enjoy [the open day] and we’ve had really good feedback,” she concluded. “Hopefully we can continue and it can grow.”
