What a great couple of days!! 🎉

The Showman’s Show - The Outdoor Event Services Exhibition would like to thank our Exhibitors, visitors and suppliers for helping to make the 2025 show such a success.

Over 315 exhibiting companies descended on Newbury Showground, showcasing everything from hot tubs, camels, event tech and street food, to stretch tents, sanitation solutions, portable roadway, battery power and so much more!

Storm Benjamin couldn’t even put off the visitors on the second day (luckily the rain stayed away until the show closed). ⛈️

The event industry is thriving, and face-to-face communication has never been more important.

Being able to meet in person, experience products firsthand, and connect directly with industry peers continues to be of great value.

Next year’s show will be held on the 21st & 22nd of October.

This year’s Showman’s Show was a particularly special one for the Custom Covers team. After the fire destroyed our hire stock earlier this year, we were proud to return with a completely brand-new range ready for hire.

The Showman’s Show

The Showman’s Show is the original outdoor show of its kind in the UK. The first Showman's Show was held in 1984 at the Newark Showground, with only 80 or so exhibitors. Until 1989 the show was held every two years but due to demand, from exhibitors and show visitors alike, the then Lance Publications made the decision to hold the event annually. Initially it moved around the country but eventually settled at the Newbury Showground, which has been its home for the last 20 years. Today the show on average attracts nearly 4,500 visitors over two days and has in excess of 350 exhibitors, who show the most sophisticated structures, equipment, technology, services and entertainment demanded by the event industry at large. It is not to be missed if you work in the festival, outdoor event or live event industries.
