THE HISTORY

THE IDEA OF THIS TWICE-YEARLY FAIR CAME ABOUT IN 1995. AT THAT TIME THERE WAS NO NEED FOR YET ANOTHER 'TYPICAL' ARMS FAIR,OF WHICH THERE WERE ALREADY ENOUGH, BUT THIS ONE WAS GOING TO BE DIFFERENT, GOING BACK TO THE EARLIER ARMS FAIRS CONCEPT OF BRINGING TOGETHER DEALERS, COLLECTORS AND ENTHUSIASTS FOR AN EVENT CONCERNED SOLEY WITH THE BEST OF ARMS, OLD AND NEW WITHOUT THE EVER-INCREASING ELEMENT OF 'MILITARIA'

THE VENUE WAS CHOSEN TO PROVIDE THE BEST POSIBLE SETTING FOR SUCH AN EVENT. NO OTHER SUCH SHOW CAN HAVE THE UNIQUE ADVANTAGE OF TAKING PLACE AT THE MOST FAMOUS AND HISTORICAL SHOOTING GROUNDS IN THE WORLD. FOR THOSE WHO KNOW BISLEY IT HAS ITS OWN SPECIAL ATMOSPHERE. THERE IS PLENTY OF PARKING AND ACCESS FOR BOTH VISITORS AND EXHIBITORS, YOU HAVE NONE OF THE INCONVENIENCES EXPERIENCED AT MOST OTHER VENUES, THERE IS A RAMP FOR THOSE WITH RESTRICTED MOBILITY.
FULL CATERING IS AVAILABLE FROM AN EARLY START BREAKFAST THROUGH TO LUNCH, AS WELL AS SNACKS, BEVERAGES AND A LICENCED BAR LATER IN THE DAY.

A YEAR CAREFUL PLANNING RESULTED IN THE FIRST ANTIQUE AND CLASSIC EVENT ON 24th MARCH 1996. IT WAS AN INSTANT SUCCESS AND SINCE THEN THE TYPICAL REACTION BY VISITORS AND EXHIBITORS AT THAT FIRST SHOW HAS BEEN 'AT LAST A REAL ARMS FAIR'
IT HAS BEEN CONSTANTLY ECHOED AS MORE AND MORE PEOPLE HAVE DISCOVERED THIS SPECIAL EVENT.

THE BISLEY ANTIQUE AND CLASSIC ARMS FAIR IS A SHOWCASE FOR A COMPLETE RANGE OF ITEMS TO SUIT EVERY LEVEL OF INTEREST BROUGHT TO BISLEY BY THE UK's TOP DEALERS.
