The Big One set to be the biggest ever!
Thousands of anglers are set to attend this year’s most exciting fishing show this weekend.
The Big One, being held at the FIVE complex in Farnborough, Hants on April 8 and 9, is expected to see a record-breaking 20,000 visitors over the two days. This year’s angling extravaganza extends over an area of more than three football pitches, and organiser Vince Davies thinks its popularity is down to the sheer number of additional exhibitors and angling stars on site.
He said: “The Big One has been the number one consumer tackle event for the last 26 years, and this year we’ve already smashed the record for the number of early tickets sold – so you know this is the one single show people want to be at. “The Big One is bigger and better than ever before with 220 exhibitors, more than 30 angling stars and two seminar rooms where anglers can interact with their favourite celebrities.”
As usual, visitors will get to meet some of the greatest names in the industry including Steve Ringer, Martin Bowler and Bob Nudd, all of whom will be there over the two days to share their tips and secrets to help you put more fish on the bank. To accommodate expected visitor numbers, the organisers have improved parking and boosted the catering service area with an outdoor zone.
You will be able to find the Angling Times team on stands 147 this weekend where we will have lots on offer such as Steve Ringer's new bookazine - Ultimate Guide to Feeder Fishing. we will also be offering out a FREE goodie bag that will be handed out so make sure you come and pay us a visit.
