The British Sign & Graphics Association (BSGA) is hosting a dedicated Sign Makers' Village during Sign & Digital UK 2026 at the NEC from February 22 and 24. Here visitors will get the chance to have discussions with industry experts, see the full spectrum of sign making techniques, and even have a go at a few themselves!

The Sign Makers’ Village will host live demonstrations from industry experts throughout the event. Experienced sign writer Paul Hughes on the Sign Makers Workshop will provide demonstrations on vinyl applications. Chris Edwards of CVI Group will demonstrate architectural wrapping techniques, highlighting a fast growing opportunity for sign businesses. Traditional signwriting and gold leaf gilding will also be on display, led by Perry Eales of Perry Signs, who will encourage hands-on participation.

Alongside the practical sessions, visitors can take part in informal discussions, presentations and questions and answers covering topics such as apprenticeships, wellbeing and industry standards. BSGA’s Sign Stories will feature experienced sign makers sharing insights and answering questions, while Eye on Display will host live interviews with sign makers and suppliers throughout the event.
