BONSAI EXPO 2023



April 16th 2023 saw The UK Bonsai Association host the 4th Bonsai Expo, this time at the K2 Sports Centre in Crawley, West Sussex.

I was asked by the exhibition organiser Steve Hale to capture the event and create a video explaining a little what this particular exhibition is about.

My aim was not to just showcase the amazing trees on display. If you want to see them I urge you to attend the show. Instead I wanted to show why the individuals are putting in such a great effort to make it happen every year. So I asked a few people to share their experience of the event and edited it together in my own little way.

Hopefully this will give a taste of what has become the UK national bonsai exhibition and show to those who have yet to experience it.

    This film was in my “suggested” list on YouTube. Bonsai is something that has never been on my radar. I don’t know anything about it or know anyone who does.

    I’ve got a feeling that that is about to change. I’m absolutely blown away by the effort and skill that goes in to this. The art that the people in this film produce is mind blowing!

    I’m now going to spend an evening learning what I can about this craft. I’m absolutely inspired!

    As for the filming and production of this film… It’s incredible!

    Many thanks for taking the time to produce this. Bonsai has a new fan! 😬👍

    Great video. This was the first bonsai show that myself and my husband attended and we found it very interesting. I have been doing bonsai for about a year now. It gave us a good giggle that you got my husband in your video, he was the one on the scooter with the trailer, I can see that we will be attending many more bonsai shows in the years to come. Again great show and video.

    Excellent video of an excellent show. The trees are amazing and so is the presentation of them. I love that you covered the entire show process from show set up to the show itself and then tear down. So many videos just focus on the show itself and don't show what it takes to put a show together and then dismantle it. Great work.
