IT MIGHT not be the show as we all know and love it, but the RHASS is going all out to ensure that the Showcase that it is putting on in its stead will be a quality streamed event which will still provide a great visitor experience. The week-long show, which starts on June 14 and ends on June 20, promises to reach out both to its traditional show-going audience and a whole new world-wide set of fans. The organisers have been working hard behind the scenes to deliver a quality show of live-streamed judging, analysis and chat that will total nine hours every day, with a highlights show available after each day.
