Following the success of the inaugural GWCT Welsh Game Fair last year which welcomed 10,000 visitors, organisers have announced that the event is set to return to Vaynol Estate in Gwynedd, North Wales on Saturday 9 and Sunday 10 September 2023.

As well as showcasing fishing, clay shooting, gundogs, game cookery, falconry, horses and hounds, rural crafts, food and drink, visitors were treated to a wide range of attractions. Displays, live debates, shopping at hundreds of trade stands and family entertainment, all with a countryside theme. The event was also an important fundraiser for the Game & Wildlife Conservation Trust (GWCT), a charity that conducts vital research into Wales’ most vulnerable species such as woodcock and sea trout.

“The Welsh Game Fair came to life with its own personality and nuances delivering a special event from which to build for this year,” commented Stable Events’ managing director James Gower, adding: “The location was outstanding, the perfect blank canvas on which to showcase the best of Welsh countryside and tradition. We are now busy working on this year’s event and have some surprises in store so watch this space!”
