Each service provider involved in the Fin-tastic value pack will cast a vote on a selected criteria and there'll be 1 winner of the money we raise.
Will all the exhibitors purchase the Fin-tastic value pack?
Participation is completely optional, and we understand some exhibitors may choose not to take part, no pressure at all.
When do I need to buy the Fin-tastic value pack?
The last day to grab a pack is Thursday 24th July 2025, at 12noon. The winner of the money raised will be announced the following day at the Expo.
