Rutland County Show

Thursday, 4 March 2021 16:26

The Rutland County Show will be replaced by a Festival of Food and Farming on Sunday 11 July, at the Rutland Showground.

Due to continuing uncertainty over coronavirus restrictions, organisers of the event have decided to adapt the show’s usual format. The Festival will feature an array of stalls and entertainment, showcasing all that's best about rural life in Rutland, with lots of delicious locally produced food and drink. There will not be any livestock judging this year but entertainment will include a farriers demonstration, Heavy Horse Village and Sheep Show.
