Calling all Showlight Exhibitors and Sponsors – it’s time!
It’s less than ten months until Showlight 2023 and preparations are gathering pace for this premier networking event. This will be the first in-person Showlight for 6 years and excitement is building rapidly as plans are made and diaries blocked out.
Exhibitors
Exhibitor stand bookings are underway with many confirmations already in place. The first exhibitors will be announced in the coming weeks. Those who wish to exhibit should contact John Allen at the soonest opportunity as places are limited and allocated on a first come, first served basis. Don’t miss your chance to be an integral part of Showlight 2023!
Sponsors
There are plenty of opportunities to become a Showlight sponsor – whether you choose to exhibit or not. Gold, Silver and Bronze sponsorships exist alongside specific sponsorship for aspects such as hospitality, transport, welcome drinks, speakers or students, and many more to suit all budgets – you could even suggest your own idea! Again, these sponsorship roles will be allocated on a first come, first served basis and all enquiries should be made to John Allen who will furnish the full details.
With Fontainebleau the location for Showlight 2023, it is especially fitting that our headline sponsor for this year is French lighting manufacturer, Robert Juliat. We are also grateful to the following sponsors who are already in place: Platinum sponsor, Ayrton, Gold sponsors Eyetidy, Robe, SFL, Silver sponsors ABTT, ACT Entertainment, Altman, CAST, Christie Lites, White Light and Bronze sponsor, PRG. We are proud to have LSi as our Media Partner and LSA as our Media Supporter once more, and the support of PLASA.
Showlight only happens every 4 years, and is the most popular networking event for the lighting industry. Don’t miss this opportunity to meet with lighting designers, manufacturers, students, technicians and lighting practitioners from all over the world, for three days in a single, beautiful setting. We would love you to join us, so be sure to book your stand space or sponsorship soon. Contact John Allen on chairman@showlight.org.

Robert Juliat is very proud to welcome Showlight 2025 to France for the very first time in its history as it opens its doors in Dijon from 19-22 May. This global quadrennial networking event for lighting professionals is itinerant by nature, choosing a new country and a new venue at each outing. France has a rich tradition in the arts and lighting which Robert Juliat is thrilled to showcase on an international stage. “As a company that has been at the heart of the lighting industry for over a century, Robert Juliat is honoured to be the Headline Sponsor of Showlight 2025,” says Robert Juliat’s 3rd generation managing director, François Juliat. “Bringing this prestigious event to France, the home of our heritage, is a moment of immense pride for us. For over 100 years, Robert Juliat has been synonymous with excellence in lighting, and sponsoring Showlight 2025 is a natural extension of our commitment to supporting the next generation of lighting professionals and technologies." Showlight is more than just a conference; it is a unique gathering where ideas, creativity, and passion for lighting come together. Its eclectic programme of presentations, delivered by specialists across multiple lighting disciplines, is augmented by a supporting exhibition, ample networking opportunities and superb dinner locations, all in a convivial and informal atmosphere. It offers unprecedented opportunities for meeting old friends and colleagues, and making new connections. "Showlight is renowned for bringing together the brightest minds in the lighting industry, and we are delighted to contribute to this exchange of knowledge and experience,” continues François Juliat. “As a company, we have always been committed to fostering innovation and collaboration, and we are thrilled to support an event that reflects these values. Hosting Showlight 2025 in Dijon is an opportunity to celebrate the past, present, and future of lighting in a truly inspiring setting, and to ensure the future of lighting continues to shine even brighter." “Robert Juliat has steadfastly maintained its support of Showlight since it originally stepped forward to sponsor Showlight back in 2021,” states Jim Tetlow, Chairman of Showlight 2025. “They have stayed with us faithfully since then, sponsoring our interim Virtual Showlight in May 2023, and now hosting the first in-person event since 2017. We are very grateful to them and to all our generous sponsors which have made Showlight 2025 possible. We are so excited to bring you a splendid line up of speakers, in a beautiful city, which also happens to be a centre of gastronomy. Showlight 2025 is an event you do not want to miss!” Tickets for Showlight are now nearly at capacity with only a few remaining.
