Everyone flocks to the Horticultural Tent to see an amazing showcase of local talent. With almost 130 different classes, many of which change every year, the programme includes floral and vegetables, photography and art, children’s handicrafts and handwriting, cakes and puddings, needlework and jams, and many more.

With so many entries, the tent is closed all morning whilst the judges are busy at work but opens for viewing at 12 noon, or as soon as judging is completed.

The presentation of Cups and Shields takes place at 4.15pm.

Afterwards, there will be an auction of some of the exhibits at 5pm outside the beer tent.

All the classes are fun to enter, so please join in. The Classes Preview can be seen on the main menu of this website.

Nearer the Show date a full Schedule of the Classes and The Rules can be downloaded at the bottom of this page, plus the option to enter on-line too.

All entries must be displayed in the Tent by 9.15am of the morning of the Show.

The closing date for 2020 entries is TBC .
