Shows and fairs
Agricultural shows are an excellent day out for the whole family, as well as being an opportunity to find out more about the rural way of life in the North Pennines.
Show time!
You'll find stalls selling local produce and crafts; rural skills demonstrations; animals; from sheep, cattle and poultry to goats, guinea pigs and ducks; as well as programmes of events from sheep dog trials to pony fancy dress! Find out more about shows and fairs from information centres
