About the show /

Join Carmarthen Cameras for the Welsh Birdwatching Optics Show 2024! The event will be held at the stunning National Botanical Gardens of Wales on Saturday, August 31st, 2024, from 10 AM to 4 PM.

The venue is set, the brands are booked, and we have a stacked roster! Join us to explore the biggest names in optics, top-tier tripods, supports, bags, and accessories. There will be seminars and talks from some of the biggest names in the industry.

We will also offer limited tickets to the Birds of Prey Centre, where you can receive expert tuition on wildlife photography and bird watching from professionals representing the biggest brands.

The main area to find the manufacturers is the beautiful Millennium Square, located at the heart of the Gardens. This is the centrepiece of the event, and directly behind the square is the Theatre Botanical, where you’ll find an exciting line-up of speakers from the wildlife world.

This is a free-entry trade show. The Carmarthen Cameras team has gone above and beyond to ensure that attendees can access our show without paying an entrance fee to the gardens for the day. Simply book your ticket on Eventbrite and present it at the entrance on the morning of the show.
