Said to be a firm highlight of the woodworking calendar, Mapped Out Media says this exhibition is a fantastic addition to the company’s growing media portfolio.

The 2026 show will mark a decade of tools, talent and timber, showcasing woodworking inspiration alongside cutting-edge equipment.

Since its launch in 2016, the event has become one of the busiest and most popular fixtures on the woodworking calendar, attracting professionals, hobbyists and newcomers alike.

The dates for the 2026 event have now been confirmed: the show will take place at Newark Showground, Nottinghamshire, on 6–7 March 2026.

In addition, to go alongside this, a brand-new event website has also been launched – www.midlandswoodworkingshow.co.uk – where you can find the latest news, including confirmed trade stand exhibitors and demonstrators. Importantly, advance tickets will also be available to purchase online.
