The Annual OwnerShips Show
This is both an indoor and outdoor event held at Braunston Marina (on the A45 just north of Daventry) over the first weekend of February (10.00am to 4.00pm both days). In 2009 this will be the weekend of 7th and 8th February.
The indoor show includes representations and exhibitors from all walks of waterways life - including Canal Restoration Societies, Traditional Rope makers, Traditional Lace Plate makers, and various other craft, Engines, Boating Hats, Clothes, and Furniture, and even Traditional Fudge.

The refreshments cafe inside the main marquee is open all day, alongside the bar, and in the evening you can enjoy a concert by musicians, followed by the Day Star Theatre.
The outdoor show includes a wide variety of private narrow boats for you to step aboard, hosted by a small army of existing owners within the scheme who are available to answer any questions. Please note that OwnerShips does not employ salesmen. |
If you get completely bored you can enjoy a change of scenery on one of the (free) canal trips, also running all day.
