The Bathroom Manufacturers Association (BMA) has confirmed that Pitchfest is officially set to return as part of the BMA theatre programme at InstallerSHOW 2025, which will take place at the NEC Birmingham, 24th-26th June.
At Pitchfest, solution providers will go head-to-head, delivering fast-paced, no-fluff pitches to a live audience of bathroom installers – and only one can be crowned Pitchfest Champion.
Here’s how it all happens:
Two Heats
Heat 1: 24th June at 3:15 PM
Heat 2: 25th June at 10:15 AM
Each heat will feature 6 rapid-fire pitches, and participants get 5 minutes on the clock. Once all pitches are complete in each heat, the audience will vote for their favourite using an online voting system. The top 3 pitches from each heat will move on to the grand final. Voters themselves will be entered into a draw to win an iPad Air, courtesy of Leopard Co.
The Final Showdown – 26th June at 2:00 PM
The overall champion will benefit from a 10-week sprint marketing campaign with Leopard Co worth £7k. There are only 12 pitching slots available, and they’re going first-come, first-served. From the 13th entry onwards, hopefuls will be added to a reserve list.
