I went last year and did enjoy it, as did my mates who came with me. No, there weren't any 'bargains' to be had, and we took our own food/drink. It was good though to meet up with fellow 'shooters' and also to see the lovely expensive shotguns and rifles on display that one day, I may be able to afford. As mentioned, entry is free and four of us sharing the fuel cost, works out very little each for an enjoyable day out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Best Posted May 20 Report Share Posted May 20 Been going to Game Fairs since 1965. After not enjoying last year’s at Wragley I said I would not go this year. But now it is getting closer I may decide to have a day out if the weather looks fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave at kelton Posted May 21 Report Share Posted May 21 Too far but will be at the Scottish Game Fair at Scone. Smaller but a very much better atmosphere in my view. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dekers Posted Saturday at 06:27 Report Share Posted Saturday at 06:27 I have regularly attended the Game Fair for 20+ years, seen the ups and downs and the closures. Last year was disappointing and much smaller than normal, I have my free BASC ticket this year and Im still not likely to go, shame, I always looked forward to it.

I have been to the majority of game fairs since 1965 and I, too, was disappointed with last years. I left saying that I would give this year’s a miss, but may still go if the weather is good and I’m bored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feltwad Posted Sunday at 20:21 Report Share Posted Sunday at 20:21 Remember one of the early game fairs that I attended mainly because it was not far from where I lived and that was Raby Castle , Co Durham in 1972 a good all round fair Feltwad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
