1. World of Park & Leisure Homes Show

The ever-popular World of Park & Leisure Homes Show heads back to the NAEC Stoneleigh from 12 to 14 June giving visitors a glimpse into a potentially fantastic leisure opportunity and perhaps even something new to consider for a wonderful retirement lifestyle.

Running for over 30 years, the free show's 2026 line-up is set to be the most ambitious yet, featuring residential park homes, luxury lodges, holiday homes, tiny houses, pods, eco‑builds and innovative new concepts.

Such is the scale of the industry-leading event, stars of ITV's Fletchers' Family Farm, Kelvin and Elizabeth Fletcher will attend the show on Friday 12 June to unveil their new Fletcher's Farmhouse Lodge - created with Pathfinder Homes - and to meet the public looking at the lifestyle on offer and fantastic range of homes on view.

Sponsored by Berkeleyparks, the event will also see manufacturer EcoHabs attend for the first time, showcasing their must see 'fold out container home' - a compact, experimental accommodation concept that folds out on‑site and offers a modern, sustainable approach to leisure living.

The show features a catering village, live demonstrations and even freebies on arrival.

The annual event, which is organised by Kenilworth Runners and sponsored by Leamington-based Blythe Liggins Solicitors, was opened up to 1,000 more participants this year.

All places have already sold out, for the third year in a row.

Richard Clarke, race director from Kenilworth Runners, said: "The Two Castles Run is now in its 42nd year and we're delighted more people than ever will be taking part.

"They will also have plenty of support from people who have booked tickets to the castles, and we hope for others to line up along the route and encourage the runners on their way.

"Whether you're running or just coming along for a day out, there's always a great atmosphere.

"We hope to see more supporters than ever cheering on our runners this year."
