Attractions in the main arena this year include:

 

HAWKSDRIFT FALCONRY

The displays include flying of hawks, buzzards, owls and falcons and even two friendly ferrets take part!

Audience members are asked into the arena to participate. The display is informative and educational with a touch of humour and will appeal to all ages.

 

 

David Seamark Sheepdog Demonstration
David is a sheep and arable farmer from Norfolk with a large flock of 600 ewes. His demonstration shows the skill and obedience of his working sheepdogs as they guide geese and sheep around a series of obstacles. Children are also invited into the arena to help with the display.

 

 

Carriage driving will again be a supporting event to the Show providing an insight into the kind of vehicle which were in everyday use within the last eighty years. Besides the usual classes which are in an area slightly apart from the main show field there will be a driven display of the different types of vehicles.

 

 

White Horse Kite Flyers

 

The 'Flyers' will demonstrate their skills at controlling different forms and shapes of kites - all weather permitting!

A spectacle for all to enjoy

 

 

·        Vintage & Classic tractors and farm machinery

Veteran, Vintage, Classic and modern tractors and also examples of farming machinery will provide an exciting spectacle.

There will be a working tableau featuring machines used in manure spreading - without the smell - joined by those connected with haymaking, while a full parade of tractors through the ages will fill the arena in the afternoon.

 

·        Vintage & Classic cars and motorcycles

We hope to have a wide range of classic cars, commercial and motor cycles from the 1930’s to the present day. Please feel free to talk to the owners who will be delighted to discus their vehicle, but you are requested not to touch the vehicles.
