Competitive Areas

We have a wide range of competitive areas within the Show.

Those wishing to enter classes should please visit our Competing section.

Competition has been a fundamental aspect of the Show ever since the first days when local men competed to drill holes in granite using the simplest fo tools - the granite can be seen near the flagpoles.

Today we showcase gentler aspects of life through our Arts, Craft and Cookery Section, and our fiercely competitive Horticulture Section. We also feature many animal competitions ranging from Cage Birds and Pigeons to Cattle, via Cavies, Dogs (and Dog Agility) Goats, Pigs (new for 2024) and sheep.

In addition we have very large Horse Show utilising four rings with both showing and jumping classes.
