Join Us at Hugglets – Our First Teddy Bear Show of the Year!

 


The time has come for our first teddy bear show of the year-Hugglets! As always, we will be exhibiting at Stand 121 in Main Hall Three.

With Hugglets now hosting only one in-person show per year, I truly hope you can attend and support the incredible teddy bear artists and suppliers. This may be my only show of the year, I am still exploring other events but have not committed to any just yet. If you’d like to see the bears in person, this is the perfect opportunity!

For details on the show and how to buy tickets please visit the Huggets Website, if you are a Hugglets Club member you will be able to gain entrance to the show early at 10.30 (general admission 11.00) take a look at prices here, its well worth the investment as you'll save money on the ticket cost as well as early entry.

I look forward to seeing you—please do stop by and say hello. Lyn will be joining me with her beautiful knitting, and this year, we are fortunate to have a double stand. Lyn will be at one table, and I will be at the other.

Check out my socials for daily sneak peeks and I'll post a preview on here Saturday.
