UK’s biggest consumer fishing shows are back for 2022

The dates for the Big One Farnborough and the Big One Stoneleigh in the UK have just been released as March 5th & 6th and April 2nd & 3rd respectively.

The shows, owned by Bauer, the publisher of fishing weekly Angling Times, offer a mix of manufacturers and retailers that has attracted huge attendances in previous years. Visitors will have a unique opportunity to get their hands on the new season’s kit, as well as hear buying advice from the experts who created it. Exhibitors who have already signed up for both shows include Shimano, Sonik, Dinsmores, CC Moore, DT Floats and Outlaw Pro.

Both shows are currently offering early bird tickets with 20% off the normal price. The Farnborough event was a casualty of COVID last year, but any tickets held over from that show remain valid for 2022.

The Big One organisers promise some of the biggest manufacturers and ‘incredible deals’ from retailers on bait and tackle. The shows will also deliver entertainment, advice and anecdotes from top anglers in the Legends Theatre, anchored by Rob Hughes.

Venues are the International Exhibition and Conference Centre, Farnborough, Hampshire, and the National Agricultural and Exhibition Centre, Stoneleigh, Warwickshire.
