The Gillingham & Shaftesbury Show has returned to celebrate everything great about the great British countryside – with the New Blackmore Vale and New Stour & Avon as its media partner.

The show, traditionally held on one day, has split its visitor numbers across two days to offer visitors the freedom of socialising with friends and family safely.

Organiser James Cox said: “This year’s show is extra special, not only because last August the showground was empty but also as we offer a safe slice of normality after a difficult year.”

This year the show offered all trade stands a 20% discount to assist all businesses that have struggled after a difficult year. The show will once again offer farmers the chance to meet buyers, suppliers and machinery dealers and fellow farmers after an isolated year.

James added: “Our teams here have worked tirelessly to make the show happen and just know it will all be worth it on the day, we are all so excited to reopen our gates.

“We are delighted to have the fantastic New Blackmore Vale magazine as our show media partners this year. We were all so excited to hear the magazine was back again, and this version truly does celebrate everything local so were honoured to have them as media partners.”
