WELCOME TO THE GREAT BRITISH RABBIT SHOW 2022
The Great British Rabbit Show is the British Rabbit Council's show to celebrate the Rabbit and all matters relating to rabbits in the United Kingdom. We are hosting a spectacular six star championship show and a pet show alongside it which will celebrate the exhibition hobby of rabbits, but also educate people in the needs and welfare requirements of keeping rabbits. It will also be a celebration of the heritage of pedigree rabbits, and educating the public about different breeds of rabbits.
If you love rabbits and want to know more about rabbits, then the The Great British Rabbit Show is the place to be on 2nd and 3rd July 2022 at the Newark Showground, Newark, Nottinghamshire.
