Thousands turn out to support Peterborough’s Autumn Show!

From sheep racing and award-winning livestock to giant vegetables and local food produce, visitors turned out in their thousands to support Peterborough’s Autumn Show.

All the fun of the Autumn Show in Peterborough

Over 8,000 people enjoyed the mid-October sunshine at the East of England Showground to experience a family day of fun, fur, feathers and much more.

Animal antics throughout the day included a range of equine events, canine attractions, birds of prey displays, duck and sheepdog demonstrations and the crowd-pulling Lamb National!

The Supreme London Championships Small Livestock Show, billed as the rabbit world’s equivalent of Crufts, was a huge attraction – as were the trade stands, food hall and the Giant Vegetable competition.

Peterborough Arena managing director Keith Dalton said: “It was a fantastic day – and the feedback from the many people I have spoken to has been great. The weather was kind and that certainly helped, but this year we introduced some exciting new elements to the show – alongside the traditional and popular attractions – which certainly captured our visitors’ imaginations.”
