hello everyone i dont know if peole have already given this information, but, my other half has had reptiles all his life but we dont breed, but we are very intrested in going to shows not pref to buy just to see different reptiles etc just wondering if anyone could tell me of any coming near norfolk any time soon, and the best way to find out about shows tickets etc and if breeder shows are open to everyone or just bredders?

cb = captive bred
cf = captive farmed (Parents were/are wild)
wc = wild caught

Places like hamm sell tickets on the door, and traders passes are only available when booking tables to sell.

Just wanted to say cheers for all the info guys!
I'm going for the first time next month - may 30th - can't wait! Reading all this has made me even more excited!!!!
Travelling from Ireland, so it's gonna be a bitch, but at least i don't have to worry about the euro conversion rates!
Does anyone know if it really is the best thing to prebook your animals, or could i end up disappointed, finding them cheaper with other people on the day? I'm such a show novice!

Some great info indeed!

I am entertaining the idea of going to Hamm, possibly as a trader to get some European exposure for our products.

Thanks for this post!

I am on holiday for the next show so thats impossible.

Was I right in thinking the next show at Hamm is in December?

Has anyone got any pics of a Hamm show they went too>?

Where the website link for the hamm show? I seem cant find it unless there is a specific show name?

Another thing I don't think anyone has mentioned is make sure you leave your coats/jumpers on the coach/in the car, it gets very warm in the rooms.
