#Diving - The UK's biggest event for diving enthusiasts, the annual NEC Birmingham Dive Show has established a remarkable reputation for covering every aspect of the sport in the most innovative and exciting ways.

And this year's show, running tomorrow Saturday 25 and Sunday 26 October, is surely no exception.

At DIVE 2013 you'll find plenty to interest, enjoy and inspire – in an exhibition hall boasting around 300 exhibitors, plus two try-dive pools, special features and free talks by diving's leading experts.

As ever the show - organised by DIVER Group, the same team behind the London International Dive Show - gives visitors the chance to socialise with friends from around the world; browse or buy diving equipment, training courses and holidays; and gain inspiration from seeing what other divers have been getting up to.

Whether you're an experienced diver or just starting out, DIVE 2013 is the only place to be this weekend.
