Following the hugely successful second year, and after a very busy year’s planning, the Northern Shooting Show is delighted to announce the finishing touches are now in place for the 2018 show to be held over the weekend of May 12 and 13. As before, it will be at the Yorkshire Event Centre just off the A1, east of Harrogate. There are now two additional halls to accompany the two main ones making the show even bigger, and with even more exhibitors, attractions and activities, it promises to be even better than last year.

At the Northern Shooting Show we recognise the importance of airgun shooting, and just like last year, they’ve dedicated a huge amount of indoor and outside space to all things airgun.

Big names, top kit

So what have they got in store for you this year? Well, if you’re hoping all the big-name manufacturers will be there, you won’t be disappointed. Air Arms, BSA (including the BSA heritage area), GAMO, Brocock, Daystate, and Weihrauch, will be returning, along with Armex with Walther and Umarex and Kral on the airgun range to try, too. There are plenty of new guns being launched at the show, so keep a look out for those. If you’re looking for optics, then you need look no further than MTC, Hawke, NiteSite and NVUK, to name but a few.
