Inside Vaper Expo UK 2025: Trends & Highlights

Vaper Expo UK 2025 was an absolute vibe — three full days of cloud chasing, tech reveals, flavour sampling, and meeting the faces behind the brands. Held at Birmingham’s NEC Arena, it was the UK’s biggest vape event of the year, drawing thousands of visitors from all corners of the vape world.

Couldn’t make it? Don’t worry. Here’s your full recap of Vaper Expo UK 2025 — from the biggest product launches to the latest flavour and device trends lighting up the scene.

Top product launches that stole the show

1. ELF BAR ELFX – Multi-flavour on the go

ELF BAR made headlines with their new ELFX, a sleek 4-in-1 device that lets users switch between four flavours without changing pods. Perfect for vapers who crave variety without the bulk. Expect this to hit shelves this summer.

2. Oxva Origin X Pro

Oxva dropped the Pro version of its Origin X series — a high-performance pod-mod hybrid with upgraded battery life, touchscreen controls, and mesh coil compatibility. Ideal for vapers looking to step up from disposables.

3. Fizz Bar Crystal Rush Series

Fizz Bar turned heads with its Crystal Rush disposable line — a glossy, jewel-toned design paired with frozen fruit flavours like icy dragonfruit and chilled lychee lemonade. Instagram loved it.

Flavour trends to watch for summer 2025

This year’s flavours screamed chill, fruit, and nostalgia — with a clear move toward low-sugar blends and cooling agents. Here are the top flavour trends that had everyone talking:

  • Tropical Ice: Mango, guava, and coconut chill blends were everywhere
  • Mojito Mint: The cocktail-inspired trend lives on in both disposables and shortfills
  • Gummy & Candy Notes: Think sour apple strips, bubblegum grape, and rainbow fizz
  • Floral Coolers: Jasmine and lavender-infused e-liquids with menthol finishes

Tech trends: Smart vaping is here

Touchscreen mods & LED displays

From Voopoo to GeekVape, touchscreen tech is now mainstream. Adjustable wattage, puff counters, and auto mode switching are becoming standard for mid-to-pro users.

Battery innovation

New pod systems boast all-day power thanks to advanced lithium tech and USB-C fast charging — perfect for on-the-go users who hate interruptions.

Community buzz: What people were saying

The real heart of the expo? The community. Content creators, vape reviewers, brand reps, and casual cloud chasers mixed it up across booths, competitions, and chill-out zones.

“You can feel the energy this year — it’s not just about the clouds anymore, it’s about cleaner tech, new flavours, and smarter regulation,” said one vape reviewer from Manchester.

Other big conversations included:

  • What the UK disposable ban could mean for the future of the market
