Reed Gift Fairs are trade-only events for registered buyers in the gift and homewares industry. GIC cards have now expired and are no longer able to be used. Registration is per show and badges will be emailed automatically upon registration.
All individuals must provide their business ABN for entry into the event and are required to provide additional proof of business information if requested. Any non-retail trade registrations will be removed at our discretion in order to maintain a quality business environment.
Guest Tickets will not be available for purchase at this event, and all visitors must register as a standard visitor under a valid ABN.
You will require Exhibitor Badges to enter the Fair on show days. These badges clearly display your name and the company name as well as utilise photo technology to register each time you enter the fair. Please submit below a list of the first and last names of each staff member who will be working on your stand during the fair to have their badges printed.
Please indicate the quantity of badges your company will require for staff working on your stand each show day by Wednesday 9th July 2025.

To help us reduce congestion in thoroughfares and the elimination of cash and product handling we also advise that personal shopping will not be permitted at any time during the show. We ask for your support in refraining from selling products off your stand at any time during the operational days of the fair.
