The 2025 Show will be held on Sunday 7th September 2025.


The 2025 Show Schedule.

The Committee will be working on the 2025 schedule during the winter months and aims to publish it in early spring. Most classes will continue into the new schedule but the committee will make some changes to remove classes where there were a low number or no entries or where classes are regarded as having “run the course”. Any changes that are made in the 2025 schedule will be highlighted on this page (hopefully mid to late February). In the meantime some informatiom from the 2024 schedule is included below for reference and links to download previous schedules can be found at the end of this page.
