Exhibit at HOOKED!

THE NATIONAL FISHING SHOW THE UK HAS BEEN WAITING FOR.

SIX

Disciplines Under One Roof

ONE

National Weekend

THE FIRST

All-Discipline National Show

Why Exhibit

A national platform built for the people driving growth in UK angling.

Most angling events reach the same audience every year. HOOKED! National is built to reach a new one. This is the UK's flagship all-discipline angling event: the first national show designed to grow the sport as well as serve it.

Yes, you'll meet the anglers who buy, the retailers who stock, and the creators who shape the market. But you'll also reach the people the industry has spent too long overlooking: newcomers, families, lapsed anglers, and the next generation of customers. That's the audience that grows your market. And it's the audience HOOKED! is built to deliver.

Product launches. Retail sell-through. Brand loyalty. Long-term investment in the sport. HOOKED! National is the flagship platform built to deliver all four. One weekend. Six disciplines. The full industry under one roof, and a national audience that includes the customers you already have and the customers angling needs next.

Reach an Engaged National Audience

Anglers across all disciplines, actively seeking product knowledge, ideas, and innovation.

A Platform for Launches & Education

Introduce new products, technologies, and ranges in an environment designed for explanation, demonstration, and discovery.

Demonstration Over Display

Live demos, feature zones, and talks that allow brands to show real-world performance, not just packaging.

Inform Demand, Not Just Sales

Educated anglers make confident purchase decisions, driving long-term pull-through at retail beyond the show.

The Evidence

The audience is real, cross-discipline, and engaged.

Two data sets showing who's registering and what they're actually looking for.

One visitor. Six sets of buying habits.

Registrants aren't picking a lane. On average each one follows 2.5 of our six discipline zones, and the crossover runs in every direction.

Take the Fly Zone: 92% of Fly registrants also follow at least one other discipline, with 73% following Sea or Predator and 65% following Coarse & Match. The angler you meet at a fly stand is buying across the show. Six zones under one roof is not six separate audiences. It is one audience with six sets of buying habits.

Understanding visitor intent helps us design an event that delivers real value for exhibitors, not just footfall, but engagement.

Visitors aren't just browsing, they're actively seeking new brands, engaging with demos and talks, and supporting initiatives that grow informed, long-term participation.
