Ensuring grounds people from around the UK can access expert-led sessions closer to home

Join us for GMA Connect 2026, a series of regional events bringing grounds people together to share practical knowledge, see techniques in action, and learn directly from experienced professionals.

Each one-day event combines expert-led seminars with live demonstrations, giving attendees the chance to explore solutions they can take back to their own sites.

Following two successful pilot events in 2025, the programme expands in 2026 to six events across the UK, hosted at leading sporting and education venues.

• Expert-led learning – Focused seminars delivered by industry professionals covering turf management, equipment use, and facility care
• Live demonstrations – See equipment, techniques, and products in action from leading suppliers
