Welcome to Betley Show 2018 – our 161st Show
We are really looking forward to this year’s show, with some excellent attractions in the main ring such as the fantastic Les Amis d'Onno withtheir Cossack Stunt Riding Show and the thrills and spills of the Inch Perfect Trials Motorbike Display Team!
Plus we have Howard Middleton from Great British Bake Off in the cookery demonstration area. I know that he's a very popular chef and he will be signing books too.
I do hope you find some interesting classes in this schedule and I look forward to seeing you on Show Day. It is always a good opportunity to catch up with old friends and sometimes make some new ones too!
Enjoy taking part, good luck in all your endeavours,
With my best wishes
