Taking place during half term, visitors can expect to see some exciting NEW attractions at the Show as well as plenty of old favourites!
Jamie Squibb Freestyle is this year’s Main Ring attraction. Jamie will be performing breathtaking jumps and stunts mid-air with his team of professional motorbike riders. A show not to be missed, Jamie Squibb and his team put on an incredible show featuring extreme tricks mid-air and jaw-dropping stunts. The Main Ring will also feature daily Heavy Horse displays, as well as displays from the Pony Club Games finals and a spectacular Vintage Vehicle parade.
With the return of celebrity appearances at the Royal Bath & West Show, you will have a chance to meet your favourite Love Island star! Visiting the Show on Saturday 1st June, Will Young, better known to his 1.8million TikTok followers as “Farmer Will”, is the breath of fresh air you didn’t know you needed. Will is well known not only for appearing on Love Island but for documenting his warm, entertaining and uplifting adventures on his Buckinghamshire Farm.
The hugely popular Pilton Tent, Woodland & Countryside Arena, Great British Dogs & Heavy Horses are all making a welcome return, along with a full complement of Livestock and Equine Classes. The ever-popular Horticulture area will return featuring gorgeous gardens, exciting floral displays, Horticultural themed talks from a range of green fingered professionals and a tranquil environment to enjoy it all in!
As always, there is plenty of fun for the whole family with new and improved areas coming to the Show. Lakeside Farm will be returning, bringing interactive learning about farming to life for the whole family, joined by Discover the Future – an area of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) learning for your little ones filled with free activities! Alongside the return of these popular areas, we’re introducing the all-new Bark & West. Situated next to Discover the Future and Lakeside Farm, Bark & West will feature all of your favourite dog friendly stalls, Great British Dogs and the Pawsability display ring.
After another successful year in 2023, the Great British Kitchen will also be returning with an exciting line up of celebrity chefs providing live cooking demonstrations throughout the three days. The demos are free to attend and always prove popular, so don’t forget to arrive early on the day to secure your seat in the Great British Kitchen theatre.
As always, food & drink is at the heart of the Royal Bath & West Show. With the Regional Food & Drink Marquee proving to be as popular as ever, we are pleased to be increasing the size of the marquee which will be overflowing with mouth-wateringly tasty treats from the local area.
