Chichester and District Bonsai Society

Chichester Clubs Annual Exhibition 2026

Manor Nursery have again agreed to host our Annual Exhibition and our thanks go out to them. Available space is similar to that of previous years. The Clubs displaying, between them, cover a large part of West Sussex, and Hampshire and the South of England.

The Event will be held on Saturday 18th July and Sunday 19th July. Admission is again free and the venue is Manor Nursery, Pagham Road, Runcton, Chichester, West Sussex PO20 1LJ www.manornursery.com

We are sure that a variety of quality trees will be on display as each club will have their own stand 20 foot by 5 foot (please supply your own covering for the stands). The stands are open Garden Centre stands (as seen on the Manor website) therefore no backdrops are required.

The aim of the exhibition remains the same and is designed to increase awareness in the growing and caring for Bonsai by like-minded people and to increase club memberships. (All are welcome from raw beginners through to Experienced Bonsai Carers).

The Exhibition will be open from 10.00am until 4.00pm on Saturday and from 10.00 am until 3.00pm on Sunday. (Exhibitor entry is from 8.00am)

The Venue has ample free car parking and boasts good restaurant facilities with the following timetable. Open Saturday 9.15 until 4.00pm - Breakfast served 10.00 until 11.30 - lunch (Hot meals) 12.00 until 2.00pm – Sunday 10.00 until 3.15 – Closed 11.30 until 12.00 Dinner 12.00 until 2.00 (Hot food best to book).
