Historic show returns to new home at Newby Hall
Billed as an annual celebration of farming and rural life, visitors will be offered a great family day out and the opportunity to explore local farming practices as well as see some of the best livestock, vintage vehicles and local produce.
Enthusiastic crowds are expected to attend and enjoy a host of popular attractions and events. New for 2018 is a daring stunt jousting show courtesy of Knights of the North, as well as an archery and army display and the ever-popular tug of war competition for locals.
