Local exhibitors
Pop into our local exhibitors area and discover some of the best Brighton has to offer, from brilliant gifts to nearby hotels and memorable experiences. It is a relaxed, fun space to browse, chat, and pick up ideas/gifts you will want to take home with you. A little slice of Brighton, right in the heart of our conference.

Brighton i360
If you are sticking around after the conference and fancy something a bit special, we really recommend a trip on Brighton i360. It is one of Brighton’s most recognisable landmarks and a great way to properly switch off once the sessions are done. You step into a glass observation pod that gently lifts you 138 metres above the beach, giving you uninterrupted 360 degree views across the city, the South Downs, and the Sussex coastline.
It is surprisingly calm up there and a perfect excuse to slow things down, take a few photos, and enjoy the view. The Sky Bar serves English sparkling wine and local spirits, which makes it an easy choice for a relaxed post conference drink with friends or colleagues. Back at ground level, there is also a laid back beach bar and cafe if heights are not your thing. If you want a memorable Brighton moment after MacAD.UK, this one is well worth your time.
Doubletree by Hilton Brighton Metropole
We really recommend taking a moment to visit Ellie at the DoubleTree by Hilton Brighton Metropole stand while you are at the conference. As the largest DoubleTree property in the UK, it is an impressive venue with 321 stylish bedrooms and 24 flexible meeting and event spaces, making it ideal for conferences, team offsites, and group stays.
Ellie will be sharing exclusive discounts on meeting packages, plus added extras designed to make your next event even better. There is also a prize draw on the stand, with one lucky delegate winning a complimentary overnight stay voucher. If events, venues, or future planning are on your radar, it is well worth stopping by, having a chat, and seeing what the Metropole can offer MacAD.UK delegates.


JustDucks
One of the exhibitors we are genuinely excited to have with us is JustDucks. If you appreciate small things done brilliantly, they are well worth a visit. This UK based rubber duck specialist creates everything from quirky, ready made designs to fully bespoke ducks that are packed with character and detail.
Their online range alone is a joy to browse, with hundreds of collectable ducks you simply will not find anywhere else. But where JustDucks really stands out is custom work. They collaborate with organisations and creative teams to turn ideas into ducks using detailed design, CAD modelling, and bespoke moulds, going far beyond sticking a logo on a standard shape.
If you are thinking about memorable giveaways, mascots, or something fun and different for your team, we strongly recommend stopping by their stand at MacAD.UK and having a chat.
