New all-in-one Dive Show for UK
The first weekend in March 2022 is destined to be a key date in the UK Diving Calendar with the launch of the first joint event between the teams behind the GO Diving Show and The Dive Show.
The event will take place from 4-6 March 2022 at the NAEC Stoneleigh, close to the previous venues of the NEC and the Ricoh Arena. The new Stoneleigh venue offers the same proximity to major transport links and a big plus, free car parking!
The show promises to offer something for divers of all levels from beginner to technical explorers and will host a variety of dedicated areas, workshops, keynote speakers, VR dives, as well as the usual range of manufacturers, tour operators, dive centres, resorts and liveaboards that make the UK show such a draw for divers and trade visitors alike.
Listen to Steve Backshall, Monty Halls and Andy Torbet on the Main Stage, and join Alex Mustard as he announces the Underwater Photographer of the Year competition winners.
Weekend tickets are priced at £15 each and children under 14 are free of charge. Friday is a trade-only day priced at £10 with proof of dive-related employment.
