Napoleonic Fair 2004

St. Albans UK

by Russ Lockwood

We received the following:

Greenhill Books are pleased to announce that they have arranged for the Napoleonic Fair to be continued and to be run in the future by a special fair management company, E W Services (David Smith).

The Napoleonic Fair will continue in very much the same format as Greenhill have established over the past ten years, with trade stand, wargames, and lectures. There are a few changes, though and these see the Fair moving to St. Albans and to Sunday 4th April.

The new venue is the impressive Alban Arena, right in the city centre, adjacent to the multi-storey car park which is free on Sundays. You can check out the details of the venue on www.alban-arena.co.uk complete with maps. St Albans is just to the North of London, convenient for the M25, M1, M10 and A1(M), making it within easy reach of most of the country as well as readily accessible from all the airports and ports for foreign visitors. There will be space for 100 tables for traders, a huge stage area for wargames, and lectures can take place in the Circle Foyer. There is a separate Lower Foyer for refreshments, and two bars. Alban Arena stages all sort of good quality events, and will prove the ideal venue for the Napoleonic Fair.

The International Napoleonic Fair fits very well into E W Services other portfolio of events, which include the National Living History Fayre and the National Militaria Fair, both staged at the Warwickshire Exhibition Centre; and antiques fairs at a variety of venues, including a specialist Art Decor Fair at the Alban Arena. Further details can be obtained at www.ewsfairs.com or from David Smith on 01933 225674.
