Nestled in meadows adjacent to the Victorian spa town of Tenbury Wells, Tenbury Countryside Show attracts 1000’s of visitors every year. Our one-day show is amongst the U.K’s biggest; this said, in 2024, Tenbury Show still retains its rural charm and is deeply rooted in local Agricultural and Horticultural history.
A fantastic day out for visitors, competitors and exhibitors alike, Tenbury Show is home of the Hereford Cattle Society and the National Association of Ryeland Sheep, showcasing some of the country’s finest Heritage breeds. From birds of prey, ferrets, horses, livestock, pigs and rabbits…….. it’s a real A-Z for animal lovers (No zebra’s I’m afraid!)

TradersOn 20th July 1858, a meeting was called at The Corn Exchange Hall, Tenbury. With Sir W. Smith Bart in the Chair, it was resolved:
“That it is expedient that a Society should be formed forthwith to be called the “The Tenbury Agricultural Society”.
It is this society, that still organises and runs Tenbury show today; bolstered by the support of over 300 local volunteers who come together every summer to make it all happen. In this, its 164th year, Tenbury Agricultural Society, like our show, is still going strong.
With so much to see and do there is something for everyone at our Countryside Show
