MIDPEX 2025
Warwickshire Event Centre, Leamington Spa, CV31 1XN
5th July 2025, 10am – 4pm
The MIDPEX bi-annual philatelic show will take place on 5th July, sponsored by Cavendish Philatelic Auctions Ltd. 41 Dealers and 21 Societies have already booked to take part in this popular and successful Show. Chairman, Clive Jones, said: “Midpex is one of the biggest stamp shows in the UK. I am looking forward to welcoming collectors from all over the UK to this important event, which showcases the best of philately in terms of both dealers and specialist societies. It is a great opportunity to visit new areas of collecting and meet friends, old and new.”
MIDPEX is the biennial exhibition first held in 1995 and attended by stamp collectors from across the UK. It brings together Specialist Societies with local, national and international dealers covering all aspects of Philately. The spacious venue is the same with extensive free parking and a free shuttle bus from Leamington Spa railway station.
It provides an opportunity for Specialist Societies to show off their sphere of interest to other collectors, to recruit members and identify common ground with members of other Societies. It also provides an opportunity for Societies to promote their publications and research projects and for members to meet informally, particularly those members who find it difficult to get to meetings in London. The event in 2025 includes post card dealers as well as stamps, thematics and postal history.
