The Game Fair Ltd is pleased to announce that the Abu Dhabi International Hunting & Equestrian Exhibition (ADIHEX) is now sponsoring all three of its 2022 Game Fairs - The Game Fair, the GWCT Scottish Game Fair, and the new GWCT Welsh Game Fair. ADIHEX is a week-long exhibition held from 26 September to 2 October 2022 at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre (ADNEC) and first partnered with The Game Fair in 2021. The exhibition shares the culture, heritage, and authentic sports of the Emirati people with over 100,000 visitors, including falconers, hunting and equestrian enthusiasts, end users, traders, major buyers, and VIPs from around the world. The agreement will also see the Emirates Falconers’ Club (EFC) taking part in the three Game Fairs alongside ADIHEX.

This exciting new sponsorship agreement means visitors to all British events this summer will be able to visit the ADIHEX and EFC trade stand to learn more about falconry, equestrian, fishing, hunting, and safaris in the United Arab Emirates. ADIHEX will be bringing leading brands from their event to the Game Fairs, giving visitors the chance to learn more about the Emirati culture. There will be thrilling displays from the ADIHEX and EFC contingent in the main arenas on all days of the Game Fairs.
