The Show - Saturday
5th September 2026
The events programme for this year's Show is shaping up to be one of the best yet!
Enjoy live bands, open mic sessions, Fun Science for Kids, wheelbarrow races, tug of war, welly wanging, GoGo Games for Kids, an inflatable obstacle course, Beat the Goalie (channel your inner Harry Kane or Jude Bellingham), classic vehicles, a petting zoo, competitions, market stalls, and delicious food from our local Pizza Rocket, with refreshments served by the wonderful Bell Inn Beer Tent.
We are also pleased to announce the return of the After Show Party with a twist for 2026; this year we are doing something a bit different with a “Hoedown at the Showground”.
More details to follow so keep an eye on the website and our social media channels.
In addition to performances by the Back River Rats, we will be celebrating the fantastic musical talent our community has to offer with a series of open mic sessions. So, if you are—or know of—any local performers who would like to take to the stage, please get in touch.
We also want to encourage more of the community to take part in the competitions this year so we're inviting all those lockdown bakers, crafters, homemade winemakers, photographers and gardeners to dust off their mixing bowls, bottles and jars, dig out those cameras, and rescue the craft box from the back of the wardrobe to Showcase Your Talent. We know you’re out there!
Taking part is all about having fun and enjoying a great community event—and who knows, you may even go home with a trophy!
Showcase Your Talent at the Evercreech Show
Whether you're a keen baker, an award-winning flower arranger, an enthusiastic home winemaker, a talented artist or a creative crafter, we'd love you to be part of this year's Evercreech Village Show.
Our competitions celebrate the skills, creativity and traditions that make our community so special. Whether it's your first time entering or you've been exhibiting for years, there's a class for everyone to enjoy.
From delicious homemade cakes and preserves to stunning floral displays, handcrafted creations, paintings, photography and home-produced wines, every entry helps make the Show a vibrant celebration of local talent.
You don't need to be an expert to take part—many of our exhibitors simply enter for the enjoyment, the friendly competition and the chance to share their passion with others. It's a wonderful opportunity to inspire visitors, meet fellow enthusiasts and perhaps even take home a prize or two.
So why not dust off your favourite recipe, pick up your paintbrush, arrange your finest blooms, bottle your best vintage or bring along your latest handcrafted creation? Join us in celebrating the creativity, skills and community spirit that have been at the heart of the Evercreech Village Show for generations.
Class information is available in the Show Schedule (download using the link at the top of the page). Click on the Class Entry Form below to download.
We can't wait to see what you've been creating!
