Kent County Show

With only a few weeks to go before the County's 80th Show, we have decided to celebrate this milestone with a BONUS for families!  Book in advance and children go free (maximum of 2 children per Adult ticket).

The advance adult ticket is £15.00 and can be bought on-line or by calling our ticket hotline 01622 633060.

Planning for the largest outdoor event in Kent, the Kent County Show, is complete with a full day of displays and entertainment for the whole family. 

Also this year will be a Countryside Area that will include Fly-fishing, Ferret Racing, Birds of Prey, Otters, Duck herding, Hounds and other countryside pursuits such as working Gun Dogs. The Forestry section will feature some interesting and interactive displays and provides a shady area to enjoy some peace and quiet, before discovering the rest of the Show.

There will be a large interactive area in the Agricultural Zone called ’Why Farming Matters’ that will focus on the importance of farming in Kent. The main theme of this area will be showing how food gets to the fork and will include cookery demonstrations on how local produce can be used to make a variety of tantalising meals.

It is expected that there will be an even greater number of entries in livestock this year featuring Cattle, Sheep, Pigs, Donkeys and Goats and not forgetting the wonderful display of Show Jumping and other equine classes.

There will also be the traditional mix of shopping trade-stands where you can buy anything from a car to tractor, a conservatory to an overseas property or quality food to luxury clothing items. There will also be a large number of catering outlets that will be using local farm produce, once again supporting the Kent Farmers.

The Kent County Show will be on 17th, 18th and 19th July.
