Bristol Honey Show

This year : 30th-31st August 2025

Other activities at the Honey Show

In addition to the honey show, volunteers from Bristol Beekeepers run a honey and candle sales stand, an observation hive, wax candle rolling for children and a regular beekeeping demonstration throughout the day in the grounds.  A series of talks from beekeepers, researchers and pollinator supporting organisations also run through both days of the festival and there are guided tours of the gardens available.

If you are a member and would like to find out more about exhibiting please contact our Secretary. Prizes are awarded during the weekend. You do not need to be an experienced beekeeper to exhibit and there are plenty of exhibit categories in the schedule to pick from. Every year we also rely on our members to support with running of the event. If you are interested in helping with this we will provide an opportunity to sign up closer to the date.
