New show days…Thursday to Sunday

This year’s Royal Show will take place from Thursday to Sunday, July 3-6, at Stoneleigh Park, Warwickshire.

The change to the days of the show, including a weekend, will attract more farmers and those engaged in the rural economy as well as higher numbers of rurally-connected visitors with an interest in food, farming and rural matters.

It’s your Show!

Warning - Beware Of Fairguide!

Fairguide.com/Construct Data Verlag is an Austrian-based organisation which regularly publicises its services to exhibitors at events such as The Royal Show. The company uses a misleading form, which resembles an organiser’s free catalogue listing service, inviting exhibitors to sign and return the form for an entry in an on-line directory. Doing so contracts the exhibitor into a three-year, non-retractable agreement. The exhibitor then receives an invoice for over 900 euros which, when not paid, quickly escalates into intimidatory debt recovery tactics and threats of legal action.

If you receive such a request it is NOT from The Royal Show or RASE and our advice is that you should NOT complete the listings form.

Please find below some guidance issued by the Association of Exhibition Organisers regarding Fairguide.
