The anniversary fifth edition of the International Fair of Racing Pigeons - EXPOGołębie 2012 - has finished in the Expo Silesia Exhibition Centre in Sosnowiec. This most important festival for pigeon breeders was accompanied by the 62nd National Exhibition of Racing Pigeons organized by the Polish Association of Racing Pigeons' Breeders, the partner of the fair. The fair and the exhibition were organized on 13 - 15 January 2012 and attracted over 15 thousand visitors.


EXPOGołębie is considered the most important Polish event addressed at the breeders and enthusiasts of racing pigeons. During this year's edition of the fair in Expo Silesia, the visitors had the chance to learn about the product range of over 200 firms and breeders from Poland, Belgium, Denmark, the Netherlands, Germany, Norway and Slovakia. The product range from foreign firms comprised over 30% of all the products. 
 

        

As usually, the most impressive part of the fair was the product range from pigeon breeders and sellers. Also, the product range was presented by producers and distributors of feed, vitamins, dovecots, trophies and electronic and transport systems produced for racing pigeons. There were also representatives of veterinary clinics, as well as trade magazines and portals.  

The integral part of the EXPOGołębie Fair was the 62nd National Exhibition of Racing Pigeons organized by the Polish Association of Racing Pigeons' Breeders. Right before the fair, the judges from the Association evaluated almost 1,500 racing pigeons from 37 districts, and chose 37 Polish representatives. The birds were evaluated in 9 categories: 8 sports categories where their flying abilities were evaluated, as well as in the standard category in which also their appearance was taken into account.  

The national exhibition organized by the Polish Association of Racing Pigeons' Breeders was the most important event that finished the flight season, and which constituted a summary of the local exhibitions. Within that event, Saturday witnessed the decoration of the General Polish Champions, the Olympic Competition Champions, and the National Flights Champions.
