 The European Woodworking Show 2010The European Woodworking Show was very well received in 2009. We will be adding about 30 new exhibitors to the show this year some of whom are already lsited above. We have listened to comments from exhibitors, traders and vistors and we will make efforts to improve all our Woodworking Zones for 2010.
Many of our vistors had not been to Cressing Temple Barns before and they were thoroughly impressed, it is a wonderful attraction in it's own right.
The show is targeted towards hobbyist and professional woodworkers who will enjoy access to very knowledgeable demonstrators and trade representatives in a unique show venue that enjoys excellent amenities that is easy to reach from the continent and within the UK.
