Big thanks to Rufus from Funfair Funtime for calling in the show and a chat as ever.

A big thank you all to the exhibitors who made the show a success without your support there would have been no show. We were very pleased with an additional arrival yesterday of a K-Nex Giant Wheel, I didn't get the names of the couple as they booked to attend via the church.
Also a big thank you to all those who visited. The civic party took a visit not long after the opening and spoke to all the exhibitors. The fair's social media manager Marcus also came to see you and captured these photos shared. Finally the parking issues of last year were very well resolved with a much more efficient organisation this time.
We will of course be doing it all over again for 2027.

The tables are out ready for tomorrow. Looking forward to welcoming everyone. All exhibitors can load & unload from Woodstock Road just follow the road down until you see the bungee towers. From there we will let you know about parking arrangements.

Okay two days until this year's show. Unfortunately we have had a few withdrawals this year of regular exhibitors so it won't be as big as the first two years. Nevertheless we have new exhibits coming including a replica scale model of John Wall & Son's Spin 'n' Speed Waltzer. Looking forward to welcoming everyone again this coming Monday. Don't forget the fair itself outside hosted by Capital Funfairs.

Quick reminder for your dates. Four weeks day Monday 7th September we will be celebrating World Fun Fair Month at the usual venue St Giles' Church, Oxford with the annual model show. We will still have plenty to display despite one or two usual participants sadly unable to attend it this year.
Information for exhibitors - Simon & Martin have decided not to set up in the church Sunday evening this year. This should be manageable first thing Monday morning, the side door will be open from 8am (a little later than previous years). Simon is arranging car park permits for the day for those who require them.
