The annual exhibition by the St.Albans & District Model Engineering Society.
Our show gets bigger and better every year, over 2000 visitors attended the 2018 show.
It's a great family day out with lots to see and do for children
(and grown ups too !)
Lots of local clubs and societies exhibiting too so there's a great variety of all types of models for serious model makers to see.
We look forward to seeing you there.
