APF 2026 AND THE FENCING VILLAGE HEADING FOR A RECORD ATTENDANCE
The 50th anniversary of APF 2026 is shaping up to be a record event.
The UK’s largest event for the fencing, woodland and arboricultural industries is taking place at Ragley Estate on the 24/25/26th September 2026 with over 300 exhibitors and 25,000 visitors expected to attend.
With still four months to go, the 2,000m demonstration circuit is already over 95% full. With machinery on both sides of the circuit that is over 2½ miles and £90 million of working machinery on show.
The expanded Fencing Village is packed full with the major fencing machinery and material manufacturers and suppliers represented. Booked to attend are the Association of Fencing Industries, McVeigh Parker, Hampton Steel, Quickfencer, Easy Petrol Post Driver, Robinia Timber, Bryce Suma, Sacrofast, M & M Timber, Perry Quick Clip, Tornado Wire, Solo Fencing Systems, StowAg Ltd, Mervyn Thomas Ltd, P R Newson, L F Fence & Farm and Fencing and Construction Training.
Many will be demonstrating their products and machinery and it is a great opportunity to watch and talk to the experts about any technical query.
Opposite in the McVeigh Parker Fencing Arena, the British Speed Fencing Championship will take place on Thursday 24th and the British Open Fencing Championship on Friday 25th.
Entries for each competition are limited to 15 two-person teams per day. Entries are expected to be oversubscribed and a draw will take place on 24th July to determine the successful entries.
There are some great cash and material prizes on offer. Make sure you get your entries in soon.
