DONCASTER 2016 SHOW PREVIEW

The next National Model Engineering and Modelling Exhibition, will be held from May 20 to 22 at the superb Doncaster Racecourse, refurbished at a cost of £34m. The change of venue now puts the exhibition at a readily accessible location for the north of England, while links to the A1, M1, M18 and M62 make it easily accessible from other areas of the UK.

Apart from the location change, Gavin Rex and the organizing team are looking forward to ‘business as usual’ at this event - one of the most popular on the model engineering calendar with model engineers from all over the UK, and beyond.
