State-of-the-art ground and turfcare machinery and technology will be on show at Wildwood Machinery’s second Open Day, at East Horton Golf Club on Wednesday 1 July.

Wildwood customers and partners will also be able to check out the company’s brand-new HQ, workshops and showroom, which now form part of the East Horton complex.

With a growing number of elite sports clubs, local authorities, estates and schools tapping into Wildwood’s combination of big brands and elite after-sales service, the business grew steadily throughout 2025, necessitating the increase in showroom and workshop space.

Managing Director James Bastian, said: “Last year’s Open Day was attended by groundcare professionals and buyers from across Southern England, and we had some absolutely stunning kit on display. Groundcare machinery is evolving at such a pace right now, so we’re looking forward to showcasing some of the biggest brands in the business, as well as our own new and improved HQ.”

The Wildwood Machinery Open Day is open to all groundcare professionals and buyers, and runs from 10-4pm with food served all day, and the opportunity for attendees to enjoy a free round of golf at East Horton on the day.

James Bastian said: “The Open Day is our opportunity to thank our partners, suppliers, staff and customers. It will be an environment where groundcare pros can put some really innovative machinery through its paces, do some business but also relax and have some fun.”

“We’re very lucky that East Horton Golf Club is a core part of our family business and is the perfect venue for this type of event.”

Manufacturers showcasing their wares will include: Aspen, DeWalt, ECHO Robotics, Gambetti Amenity & Golf, INFINICUT, ISEKI, Jacobsen, Ransomes, Raymo, Rovimo, Stogger, Sunseeker and Wessex International, as well as the latest additions to Wildwood Machinery’s expanding portfolio of world-class brands, Bio-Circle, FJ Dynamics, Hustler and Kress.

“Last year, the whole environment had a lovely vibe about it. We had great support from our partners and manufacturers, and our customers turned out in force,” says James. “There’s a lot happening in the industry, and a lot happening at Wildwood Machinery, and so we’re looking forward to seeing everyone on 1 July.”
