History

1987 The show was named Ski-GB and took place at the NEC.

1991 By this time renamed Soltex (Snowsport and Outdoor Leisure Trade Exhibition) and embracing snowboarding and related activities, the show moved to Manchester.

1998-2001 the Outdoor Industry organised its spring exhibition alongside Soltex at G-mex, with joint branding as Soltex/Cola and then Soltex/GoOutdoors.

2002-2006 Soltex continued as a stand-alone 4-day exhibition.

2007 Soltex was re-launched as Slide, with an entirely new concept of design and floorplan to bring the show up to date with the contemporary image of the industry.

2011 Slide moves to the International Centre Telford
