Falconry Village

 
The Falconry Village is a must see at this event, with two aims, to provide visitors with the thrill of spectacular displays and to produce an incredible area where all guests can enjoy and explore the world of falconry. The village encompasses a flying arena, an indoor training arena, specialised stalls, static displays and resident expert falconers. The Local Falconry and Hawking Clubs add to the village at shows throughout the year. Their appearances help to attract would-be falconers into the exciting world of falconry. Lantra representives are at the fairs to help with an introduction to falconry courses as well. A special feature within the village is "Wings Out Of Africa" with John Akermen and also a visit from Chris Neale, Resident Falconer with a wealth of experience and knowledge in this area.
