Why we do it, it’s not just for our members, one of our main club aims is promoting bonsai in N. Ireland and with 12k people through the gate over the weekend we have exposed our art to many new faces.

Some of the awarded trees at the weekend. We have a spread of awards and thus show us mostly about encouraging new members to exhibit and experience the buzz of displaying a tree. With 5 new exhibitors at this show alone and a few in their second year of exhibiting supported by a few old hands we had a nice spread of trees for the public.
