First of all a big thank you to everyone that attended the Bakewell Showground Spectacular last year and if you didn't attend you're in the right place, May 2010 was our first year and we had a cracking show. 2011 was even better and now we have yet more to do in 2012. We already have more exhibits, more trade stands, more entertainment, more music, more everything for 2012. Especially for the kids we have a spectacular array of animals coming from Camels, Zebras, to 15 Birds of prey. We also have Circus Mondao who boast a variety of Highly skilled artistes from around the world. See the What's On tab.

We are also currently looking for sponsorship and we can offer an array of packages to suit, so please get in touch if you would like to speak further.
