Bradford Business Fair
Showcasing and supporting Bradford & West Yorkshire businesses!
Bradford Business Fair is a business to business exhibition and support day designed to showcase and support businesses of all types and sizes across Bradford and West Yorkshire.
After a successful and enjoyable inaugural event during Bradford’s year as UK City of Culture in 2025, we are delighted to be returning to Mercure Bradford Bankfield Hotel to hold the event for a second time in 2026.

For companies looking to have a higher profile, exhibition and sponsorship packages are available. These provide a simple and cost effective way to promote your products and services to a wide range of companies and demonstrate your support of the local business community. It’s a great opportunity to highlight what is great about your business, engage with prospects and potential customers and also catch up or reconnect with existing clients.
We don’t believe that exhibiting at our fairs should just be about taking part on the day itself. So we provide a range of additional marketing benefits both before and after the event.

- Exhibition space (with table and chairs) at the event to promote your products & services
- Exhibitor page on our event website (linking to your own website and social links)

Raise your profile even more by sponsoring the event
A variety of sponsorship options are also available including a Digital Sponsor Package for those who wish to have a high profile involvement with the event, without being there on the day. There’s also the option to sponsor the Workshop Programme – ideal for businesses wishing to share knowledge/expertise, and position themselves as experts in their field.
