New website and identity launched for January event

Formerly the Bradford Championship Show, next year's event has a new title, new president, new look and new marketing investment.

Held at the Yorkshire Event Centre in Harrogate on Saturday 29th - Sunday 30th January 2011, the Burgess Premier Small Animal Show is organised by the Bradford Small Livestock Society and is set to make next year's competition one of the largest in the show's 90 year history.

New Look for The Show

The event has lots to offer breeders and traders, as well as the general public who are looking for a fun day out for all the family. A new show website has recently been launched www.thesmallanimalshow.co.uk  and a new identity developed in conjunction with title sponsor Burgess Pet Care.

Trade Showcase

At the heart of next year's show is an upgraded trade area with a new central showcase square activity zone, where interactive activities will take place including The  UK's first ever Rabbit Grand National display. International competitors from Sweden, Denmark and the Netherlands are set to head to the UK to battle with the UK's best rabbit jumpers.

Michael Fox, Show Director from the Bradford Small Livestock Society, main organiser of the event, said: "It's a great weekend out for everyone, whether you're looking to compete, trade or just attend the show, we have something for everyone. Fanciers, in particular, have long known that this show is not to be missed, if you truly want to exhibit your small animals against the best in the country.  With Burgess Pet Care's support, next year's show is set to be even bigger and better, attracting new interest and ensuring the continuation of small animal exhibition for generations to come."

Naomi Chatterley, marketing manager at Burgess Pet Care, said: "We are proud to be part of the continued success of this spectacular show. We are a company of pet lovers and owners ourselves, who see The Burgess Premier Small Animal Show as a festival for people who are passionate about small animals. We are looking forward to attracting even more visitors, competitors and exhibitors to next year's event, as the show's appeal continues to grow.
