The following shows are recommended in 2009:-

11th October - Hull Canary Association 
 
This is always a good 'warm up/training' show. All varieties of canary will be present, but with a particularly strong entry of Glosters and Fifes.
 
17th/18th October - International Gloster Breeders Association
 
The Gloster show of the year!!! Gloster breeders must enter this one. See how your birds measure up to the best in the UK. Enjoy a drink and a laugh with breeders from all over the world on the Saturday night at one of several venues/public houses in Nuneaton. Refreshments are available at the show hall.
 
25th October - Yorkshire Gloster Canary Club
 
This is one of the traditional all Gloster shows, in fact the first one that I showed at, back in the 90's and will always have a 'soft spot' for. They really are a friendly bunch, so take a trip to Ripon in scenic North Yorkshire to check it out. The Glosters tend to be of a high standard, however novices and less experienced exhibitors are welcomed just as much as the top names that are likely to be there. The bacon butties are recommended!
 
2010 will be a special event since it is their 25th anniversary show. I believe that Nick Barrett has been invited to judge. Please support this show.
 
 
1st? or 8th? (need to check date) November - Midland Gloster
 
This is always a well attended show with birds of a high standard. Try to win this one!
 
22nd November - Humberside Gloster Association
 
Now this is a show that I must recommend. Always a good entry of top quality birds and a very good novice entry. Novices should feel free to talk to the exhibitors, since we will try to encourage and help them in any way we can. A top notch Gloster show, top exhibitors, high standards, around 600 birds, around 100 novice birds, plenty of people to talk to. Well worth a visit, and enter your birds! Oh, did I forget to mention the delicious selection of home made snacks, sandwiches and cakes on offer? Cheap too.
 
13th? (need to check date) December - East Anglian Gloster Fancy Canary Association
 
Record entries have been achieved in the last few years. Another show that is going from strength to strength. Birds can be benched on the Saturday evening, when there is a social gathering of Gloster enthusiasts and their families at a Kings Lynn Hotel, hosted by Nick and Annalain Barrett.
 
If you require membership details for any of these clubs, please feel free to contact me.
