About

UK Model Railway Events is an independent, curated calendar of model railway exhibitions, shows, and open days across the UK. We're not tied to clubs, organisers, or promoters and the aim is simply to make it easier to find events near you, see what's coming up in the year, and help you plan a good day out.

Anyone can submit a model railway event, and adding listings is completely free. Entries are curated to keep information clear, relevant, and useful.
