The popular Dedicated 2 Weddings event will take place on Saturday 28^th and Sunday 29^th September. The event will deliver a host of wedding inspiration, along with demonstrations by many of Scotland’s finest wedding suppliers, inspiring venues, and thrilling fashion shows, all under one roof.

Furthermore, for the second year in a row, a fun-filled day out for the whole family is promised at the two-day Scottish Kids Show and Christmas Market, which will be held at TECA from Saturday 30^th November to Sunday 1^st December.

Finally, a brand-new Health and Fitness Show will welcome gym enthusiasts and those who are just starting out on a fitness campaign to experience an active weekend, which will include taster exercise classes, motivational speakers, workshops, and Q&A sessions. The Health and Fitness Show will take place on Saturday 1^st and Sunday 2^nd February 2020.

Danny Cowie, Jasmine managing director, commented: “We are delighted to welcome D2 Marketing to the Jasmine team, and very much look forward to working with TECA. The events complex is a great development for the North East, and we are confident these exciting exhibitions will be very popular.”

Claire-Lena Miller-Davis, Exhibition Sales Manager at TECA said: “TECA continues to bring a variety of events for everyone and securing three major exhibitions is a boost for the North East. We hope to continue to secure more exhibitions, as TECA is an excellent and flexible space, and working with a leading Aberdeen communications company such as Jasmine is a great connection for us.”
