Bee benefits! The Wiltshire Bee & Honey day is back

The Wiltshire Bee and Honey Day is back at the Corn Exchange in Devizes, hosted by the Wiltshire Beekeepers Association, on Saturday 10 October 2026.

Expect honey judging, candle rolling, virtual hives and honey beer. The event incorporates the Wiltshire County honey show with local beekeepers competing across dozens of classes, from jars of honey to bottled mead and beeswax candles. Entry is free all day, 10am to 4pm, no tickets needed. 

Alongside the bee-related crafts, tastings and products, there will be a programme of talks from bee experts and beekeepers on topics ranging from breeding Varroa-resistant colonies to how to get started as a beginner beekeeper. 

We’re pleased to be sponsoring the day again this year, helping to bring the importance of pollinators to a wider audience. Our solar farms create wildflower meadows, new hedgerows and pollinator habitat alongside the panels, giving local bee populations somewhere to thrive, while generating clean energy.

Come along on 10 October to discover more!
