Attractions in the main arena this year include:

    

THE SHEEP SHOW

A humorous educational live stage show about sheep and wool. Edu-tainment at it's best.

9 breeds introduced onto their own stage. Don’t miss the Dancing Sheep.

 

 

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.

 

 

RAF Dog Presentation Team

"Ladies and Gentlemen, Mums and Dads, Boys and Girls, I would like to present to you a display of obedience, agility and specialized training by the Royal Air Force Police and their dogs".  This, put very simply, says it all!

 

 

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.
