Space for your Exhibition to succeed

Select the perfect space for your exhibition

Home to the annual South of England Show, our venue has a heritage that’s rich in event success.

Our venue has a range of all-weather halls and spaces to accommodate exhibitions of all sizes. With a total of 8,500m2 of space at your disposal, your exhibition can be indoors, outdoors or both.

For small to medium-sized exhibitions, our Norfolk Pavilion creates the perfect atmosphere. With five bright and modern rooms available over two floors, including on-site bar, WC and catering facilities, the venue can be hired as a whole or configured to meet your needs.

For larger exhibitions, we have the versatile Queen’s Jubilee Hall with ample WC and kitchen facilities. Two additional all-weather covered buildings are also available to accommodate every format and style of exhibition for thousands of visitors.

Free on-site parking is available for up to 6,000 vehicles so your guests won’t have to worry about where to leave their cars. We can also provide appropriate exhibitor loading areas and traffic management facilities to ensure the day runs smoothly for all involved.

The versatility of our showground means we’ve got space for success whatever the size or type of event.

Jolly Good Festival

Thank you so much for all the hard work your team put into our Fiesta last Friday. It went really well, and our clients / staff had a fantastic time. The support and help provided throughout was very much appreciated and helped the event to run so smoothly. The catering team also did a fantastic job and food selection/drinks options were perfect.

Southdown Fiesta

Warners Shows organise events with all major showgrounds across England. It was a pleasure to work, from start to finish, with such a professional and helpful team on site as we launched our new event on the South of England Showground. From point of sale through to ground staff. Looking forward to returning in 2024.
