As there has been quite a few questions and info knocking about regarding Model shows etc, it has been requested that we have a sticky thread just for such info.

Please post anything Show related in here so that we can easily find the information.

Duxford BoB Show 4th & 5th September 2010

I know this got a mention in one of the threads but I thought I would post it up again in here. As it is over two days and most of you appear to like to go the other day to the one I go on, I thought I would announce that I will be there on Saturday the 4th :grinball2:

Sorry everyone, I didn't realise there was a 'Sticky' for shows ect. until I saw Alex's thread so......

I won't be going to the book fair and I can't help with your question about tank shows, sorry.

On Sunday the 10th April there is a model show at RAF Cosford nr. Telford. Shropshire ( Just off the M.54) It's free and there are loads of permanent aircraft and armour on display and some great stalls selling all things modelling.

The Greater Peterborough Model Show. Town hall Peterborough. The date is Saturday 5th March. Doors open at 10.00 till 16.00 to the general public. There will be plenty of clubs and traders.

This was the first show I ever went to, very close in my home town, in fact it is about 30 minute walk or 15 mins on buss, they don't get much closer than that lol

Hinckley Model Show 'East Midlands Model Show' to be held at it's usual venue of Hinckley Leisure Centre from 10:00 to 16:30

I can really recommend this one, maybe not the biggest but still a good show.

IPMS Model Show 27th June 2010 Midland Air Museum Coventry. Plus 75th Spitefire anniversary so duxford will be good.

I enjoyed the Midland Air Museum Coventry show last year. Blazing hot sunny day. Not the biggest but plenty to see outside which is included in the entrance fee as well as inside. A few exhibits of the museum hidden by the trade stands but still well worth the visit. I think it was £5 entry last year which, given full access to the museum as well, is a good deal. I got to sit in the cockpit of the Hind which was a bit special for me (sad, I know)
