Small Animals, Big Opportunities

The Event has a proud history of support from Trade Stand partners and the 2025 Show is set to be the most successful to date.

The 102nd Championship Show will aim to generate increased focus and interaction with competitors and general public.

Traditionally Trade Stands have been Small Animal focused, and of course we still want lots of those, but we are always open to anyone who would like to reach 1,500 consumers - largely made up of families and pet owners. Therefore we are looking for anything from craft stores to food stores and anything in between!

Limits will also be applied this year, restricting the number of exhibitors per category to maximise return for our partners. Opportunities will be reserved on a first come basis.

Small Animals, Big Day Out

Lets face it January can be a dismal time of year - we are recovering from the excitement of Christmas (not to mention still paying for it), and the weather is cold and grey.....but not any more!

The `Bradford` Premier Small Animal Show is an exciting and fun day out for all pet lovers and their families.

There is lots to do and see around the spectacle of Cavies, Gerbils, Hamsters, Mice, Rabbits and Rats.

Of course (and most importantly) we are all about education. In fact we challenge you to find more small animal 'experts' under one roof anywhere in the world! If you want to find out anything about your own small furry or indeed are thinking of getting one - then this is the place to come to learn all you need to know about that pet that you are thinking of as an addition to your family.

Even if lots of cute, cuddly and positively stunning small animals aren't enough to tempt you to this show - then the huge variety of craft, food and other trade stalls here should certainly help brighten up your day!

So now you can see we are serious when we say this is one BIG, FUN DAY OUT for all the family.

 

Please note, tickets must be pre-booked in advance, and are not available on the day. If you arrive without a ticket, you will be refused access to the event.
