The committee of The UK Association of Circus Model Builders refers to The Laughton Showground as our home. From our very first meeting to discuss holding a circus model show at their 2018 Autumn Show the support, help and assistance we have received from David, Paddy and Ross has been a huge factor in making our annual circus model exhibition the largest collection of circus models held here in the UK, and we are now extremely fortunate to be a permanent fixture at their Laughton Autumn Show in September.

 

The Laughton Showground has so much to offer, set in over 80 acres of beautiful English countryside in the heart of East Sussex, housing three stunning traditional oak framed barns and idyllic lakes it's the perfect setting for personal and commercial events. Their headline shows are The Cuckoo Spring Fayre in May and their Autumn Show in September.

 

The Laughton Cuckoo Spring Fayre is held over the Spring Bank Holiday Weekend at the end of May. It's a celebration of Britain’s transport heritage and countryside traditions at its very best. With collections of Traction Engines, Steam Rollers, Stationary Engines, Classic Vehicles, Tractors, Farm Machinery, Trade Stalls, Auto Jumble, Craft and Model Marquees making it over 1,000 exhibitors showing off the things that MADE BRITAIN GREAT. Add in the Fun Fair, Jay Millers Circus and The Crown Barn Restaurant and Bar with an excellent selection of real ales this really is a great British Bankholiday weekend for all the family.

 

The Laughton Autumn Show is over a weekend at the beginning of September and is full of all the great attractions of their Cuckoo Spring Fayre except Jay Millers Circus is replaced with The UK Association of Circus Model Builders bringing the world of circus to The Laughton Autumn Show in miniature.
