Rock and brass at agricultural show

Amultitude of music genres are set to be amongst all things agricultural at this year’s Leek & District Show in the Summer.

This year’s community extravaganza is set to take place on Saturday, July 29 at Longsdon Fields – the site where the show moved to last year.

A spokesman for the show said: “This year we have secured the performance of a highly respected horse display team together with a top class Brass Band and a Rock Choir.

“Alongside the usual livestock classes there will be an enhanced Dog Show and a full day of Show Jumping.

“Trade Stand bookings are coming in fast and furious and we are pleased to see the Farriery competition will again this year offer a chance for young Blacksmiths to show their skills.”

They continued: “With three areas for parking this year we will be able to get vehicles off site quickly and allow the courtesy bus from the town to manage regular trips.”

The Leek & District Show committee is currently on the look out for additional volunteers to help with preparations and show day management.
