The primary activity of the ‘National Association of Wine and Beermakers’, or NAWB, is to stage the world’s premier Annual show for the hobby. The ‘National’ is normally held at the end of March or early April. It is a two-day show with the AGM and Conference held on the same weekend. The ‘National’ alternates between two permanent venues - Scarborough and Weston-Super-Mare. It is hoped that these venues are sited conveniently enough to enable members from all over the country to travel to them and support their fellow winemakers in the North or South. Both these venues offer excellent facilities for the shows, and the towns themselves offer a variety of accommodation to suit everybody. The weekend is not just about the Show. There are home-made and commercial tastings and a dance on Saturday evening. The majority of classes in the show are solely for members of NAWB, but there are 24 classes that are also open to non-members who are members of clubs affiliated to NAWB. Non-members are most welcome to attend the weekend’s events, except for the AGM. However, by becoming a member and entering the ‘National’, this is your chance to enter the members’ classes and to try out your wines against some of the leading Wine and Beer makers in the country. Further details about membership of NAWB can be found on the Membership page. Click here for Membership Application / Renewal Form and/or Standing Order Form.
