Vicky gives us an insider’s look at what made this year’s event such a hit – from the overwhelmingly positive feedback (with 99.9% of attendees rating it as excellent!) to the practical suggestions they’ve already taken on board to improve next year’s experience. They discuss plans for longer networking breaks , fewer but more impactful speakers , and the possibility of turning the event into a two-day experience . Most importantly, the conversation reinforces why events like this are essential – they bridge the gap between grooming skills and business success , helping pet professionals grow not just as stylists, but as entrepreneurs. 💬 Key Takeaways Pet Pro Expo 2026 takes place on October 3rd in Birmingham. It’s set to be the biggest and best yet. Feedback from the 2025 event was overwhelmingly positive , with attendees praising the atmosphere, speakers, and organisation. Plans for 2026 include longer networking breaks and a streamlined speaker lineup to allow more time for valuable conversations. There’s talk of expanding to a two-day event in future based on attendee interest and logistics. The event is designed to help pet professionals improve their business knowledge , not just their grooming techniques. Tickets are already being snapped up – so if you’re thinking of attending, don’t hang around!
