With agriculture firmly at the heart of the Northumberland County Show
we are proud to showcase some of the finest livestock in the country
with sections for cattle, sheep, horses, alpacas and goats as well as
the ever popular rabbits and cavies and a marquee packed with pigs. The
competitive day culminates in the Grand Parade of livestock in the main
area where the coveted Champion of Champions title is awarded. The
competitions aren’t all about livestock – we have our own ‘bake off’
classes in the Competitive Home Crafts marquee, Cumberland &
Westmorland wrestling, one of the biggest stick dressing competitions in
the country and lots of huffing and puffing in the tug of war.
