The All England Koi Show '25

The All England Koi Show 2025 is the penultimate koi show of the season. It was a great weekend, and the showground had a buzzing atmosphere this year, which was lovely to see. I had a quick catch-up with Head Judge, Allan Tait, who said the standard of koi on display was very high, if not the best of the year so far from his perspective. Well, let's see if you agree. Enjoy the koi photos! 

Thank you and congratulations to all the exhibitors and the show team that gave up their time to set up and man the show.

Presenting...
