The Retreat Show is the first show entirely dedicated to retreats ever to be held in the UK
What is a retreat?
A Retreat is a break where people are able to pull back from the rigours of everyday and pursue an interest together with other like-minded people at a great location.
Why retreat?
More and more people are experiencing increasing levels of stress; the recent economic crisis has led many people to reassess their priorities and seek to redress their work/life balance. Package holidays with little or no purpose are not a strong enough tonic to alleviate the dissatisfaction and lethargy felt by many people stuck in a daily grind in the UK - The Retreat Show neatly presents a higher quality of relaxation with a purpose and makes it instantly accessible to exactly those people who need it most.
What do people do on retreats?
Empowering people to follow their dreams and listen to their hearts; the common denominator unifying every exhibitor is that what they offer frees people up to immerse themselves in an inspiring environment doing something they love:
Examples:
Practising yoga
Doing landscape painting
Learning pilates
Immersing in creative writing
Taking a detoxification course
Learning a genre of cooking
Visiting a spa
There are many more activities which can be considered to be retreats, the key is that there is an atmosphere where people can be focused on their chosen activity or relax and take rest with no disturbance – this allows retreat visitors to recharge their batteries and truly gain from their break.
The Show is the perfect forum for owners and operators of retreats specialising in:
Wellbeing - Yoga, Pilates, Detoxification, Spas
Creativity - Writing, Painting, Cookery
Many people will have returned from unfulfilling summer holidays and be facing the prospect of darker and colder days – what could be more welcome than the opportunity to explore booking a place on a life-changing break? Give people something to look forward to and tell their friends about all through winter.
As an exhibitor you will differentiate yourself from your direct competitors by freeing yourself from the Internet and engaging face-to-face with people seeking access to your knowledge and expertise – you'll be very welcome!
