Organisers of the new trade show set to take place in September, GroundsFest, have launched a new zone at the event dedicated to those involved in the planning, design, and construction of outdoor environments in the landscaping sector. 

They say the Landscape Zone is set to spotlight landscaping technologies, solutions, and innovations, and will be aimed at landscape architects, local authority landscaping professionals, garden designers, landscape contractors, interior designers and facility managers.

The zone will be headed by Jess McCabe, an award-winning event specialist who previously worked on the landscaping event FutureScape. 

“GroundsFest is an exciting concept and I’m delighted to be involved,” said Jess. “After working in the industry for many years, I know that this concept ticks so many boxes for the landscaping sector."

Commenting on the new zone, event director Christopher Bassett said, “Our intention has always been to bring together all corners of the groundscare industry and launching The Landscape Zone is another step towards this goal."

Christopher added, “We would like to extend a warm welcome to Jess. She has an abundance of experience, knows the landscaping sector inside out and she shares our passion for delivering an extraordinary event for both visitors and exhibitors.”
