At the free Lambeth Council event you can expect all the attractions of a traditional country show, plus much more. Horticultural shows, sheep dog and owl displays, home grown vegetable and flower competitions, numerous craft & food stalls and our very own on site farm will be there for all to enjoy. All this will be on offer and more with a distinctively urban south London vibe.
Music always plays a big part to the show too featuring a mix of dub, afro-beat, disco, folk, ska and soul. Sunday will welcome back Roots Reggae Day to the Main Stage and our Village Green stage will showcase an eclectic mix of local talent playing acoustic folk, soul and pop, along with steel orchestras and samba bands.
Word from the Cabinet
Cllr Lib Peck, Lambeth Council leader, said: “I’m delighted that Lambeth is putting on the 43rd show. It’s such a unique and characterful event, meaning it’s the perfect celebration of our diverse, exciting and inclusive borough.
“Despite financial cuts, we made a commitment to keep the show free and am pleased that we have been able to honour it even in tough times.”
