Check out the snaps in this round-up of the big 2024 trade show
Two days of fun, laughter, catching up with greeting card industry pals and, of course, doing business are over for another year, with positive vibes coming from the many who attended and exhibited at PG Live 2024.
With a record 220 exhibitors and an incredible range of buyers, retailers, and distributors through the doors – including Barkers, Blue Diamond Garden Centres, British Museum, Cardfactory, Cards Galore, Cardzone, Clintons, Elphicks, Fenwick, Fortnum & Mason, Funky Pigeon. Harrods, House of Cards, Huttons, Jarrolds, John Lewis, Kew, Lark, Longacres, Oliver Bonas, Marks & Spencer, Moonpig, Morleys, Morrisons, National Trust, Notcutts, Paper Tiger, Postmark, RHS, Sainsbury’s, Scribbler, The Stock Shop, Temptations, Tesco, Thortful, TJX, TK Maxx, Utility, Waterstones and WHSmith – the 16th edition of the UK’s only specialist trade show for greeting cards proved to be one of the best yet.
There are loads of pictures showing what went on, and they can be downloaded for free here – here PG Buzz looks back on just a few of the snapshots from the Business Design Centre over Tuesday and Wednesday, 4-5 June.

![Above: “It’s my first time here, I’ve never been before and Sally [Matson] said I’d have a great time and see lots of friends – and I have! I’ve spent our Golden Ticket with Penguin Ink. It’s great just saying hi to everybody, seeing their new ranges and making new friends. Karen West (left), store manager, Red Card, Petworth “It’s lovely as always. I’ve been here many times and it’s always one of my favourite show, there’s always something new to see. I haven’t spent my golden ticket yet but I do have a couple of people in mind.” Hazel Small, RHS Wisley](https://www.pgbuzz.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/show-round-up-pic-11-1009x1024.jpeg)
