THE 2021 SEDGEFIELD AGRICULTURAL AND HORTICULTURAL SHOW HAS BEEN CANCELLED

The Show’s organising committee have sadly taken the decision to cancel this year’s show which was due to be held on the Robert Brown show field on Saturday August 8th 2021.

After consultation with the Association of Agricultural Shows and Government guidelines relating to Covid19, it has been decided that based on the information available to us, it will not be practical to organise and hold the show this year. In making this decision, we consider many aspects and particularly the safety and wellbeing of all stakeholders including, the organising committee, show members, judges, stewards, exhibitors, tradestand representatives, the general public and the people of Sedgefield.

Government data will continue to dictate many activities including travel to different area’s event attendance and post lockdown timescales. There could be changes to proposed lifting of restrictions and this information may or may not be available to us at the time of this event being due to take place.

Cancelling this year’s Show has been an extremely difficult decision for the Committee Members to arrive at, particularly as we know how much this event means to our local community. The Committee would like to thank the volunteers and supporters of Sedgefield Show-this ongoing support is vital in permitting us to deliver this special event each year. We are looking forward and we are already laying plans for Sedgefield Show 2022 – we look forward to seeing you there on Saturday 13th August 2022!

Chairman Ian Mason said we are always looking to recruit additional volunteers and supporters to help with future shows and would look forward to talking to anyone that may be interested to contact: [email protected] or 07803599294.
