The All England Koi Show 2024 took place last weekend, and it marks the final large-scale koi show of the season. Despite being a reasonably long drive from sunny Manchester, I always enjoy the weekend, and this year was no exception.
I won’t ramble too much, as I’d like you to enjoy the winning koi, but here’s to say a huge thank you and congratulations to all the exhibitors and the guys and gals that gave up their time to set up and man the show. More show season thoughts to follow but for now...
Presenting...
