The Committee are very pleased to be able to hold our 50th Annual Potton Show on Saturday 9th September 2023 

Although the show in its current format started in 1973 - we know that there was a Horticultural Show as far back as 1914,  but this seems to have been abandoned for many years until some enthusiastic local people got together to set up a traditional show.

As is now our format, the Hall & Marquee will be open to view the exhibits and prize winners from 2pm on Show Day.   (Cash entry £2)

* Please try to arrive on foot as there is only space for disabled parking at St Mary's - and limited spaces along at Potton Scout HQ on Hatley Road.  We are only a few minutes walk from either The Market Square,  or Henry Smith playing fields, via the Jubilee Path and Causeway to the Church Fields.

The presentation of prizes and awards will commence at 4pm and we welcome back Gordon Moulds, Deputy Lord Lieutenant of Bedford to announce the winners.

We are pleased to welcome back Cindy of Top Dog Training School for another Fun Dog Show, from 2.30  and also The Letchworth Morris Men and TJ's Line Dancers who will be providing some entertainment on the field.

At 4.30 please join us for the auction -  our renowned local celebrity, Mr Carlton Avison,  will be offering wonderful donated produce exhibits,  including the prize-winners!  Always a fun part of the day. 

We hope to see entries from competitors both old & new in the wide variety of classes as detailed in the schedule, which is available from Tysoes Hardware, Potton Library & Potton Post Office or can be downloaded here

Our AGM will be held in the Community Centre at Brook End Potton in November & we really would welcome your support as without it this event cannot take place - please look out for the date & come along!

We are always open to suggestions to keep the show going and relevant to local needs.

Thank you for your interest, we look forward to seeing you!
