A Strong Start to 2026 for Eventhaus

We’re delighted to kick off 2026 with our first event of the year — an Exhibitor Briefing & Training Day for The Hardware Association Ireland and exhibitors of The Hardware Show 2026.

The session was designed to help exhibitors feel confident, prepared and ready to get the most from their exhibition experience. With a strong mix of practical guidance, expert insight and operational planning, the day was packed with valuable takeaways for everyone attending the show.

Key highlights from the day included:

1Elevating exhibitor presence and performance - We were joined by Sean McLoughney of LearningCurve, who shared expert advice on how exhibitors can strengthen their presence and maximise their results — from pre-show preparation right through to the show floor.

Practical social media training - Gabriela Vavrova from Activate Vision delivered an engaging and hands-on session focused on social media content, engagement and visibility — helping exhibitors promote their brand and drive interest before and during the event.

Show operations briefing and exhibitor preparation - Our Head of Operations, Rebecca Dunwoody, led a comprehensive briefing on show operations, ensuring exhibitors had clear guidance on what to expect and how to prepare for a smooth, successful experience at the RDS.

Looking ahead to The Hardware Show 2026

The Hardware Show 2026 takes place at the RDS on February 15th & 16th, and we’re looking forward to supporting another standout event for the industry.

A huge thank you to everyone who attended, and to all those who helped make the day such a success — Hardware Association Ireland, our speakers Gabriela Vavrova and Sean McLoughney, W Display for the Shell Scheme demonstration, Red Media House for videography, Osprey Hotel for hosting, and of course the brilliant Eventhaus team.
