Huby and Sutton on the Forest Agricultural Show is held annually on the last Sunday in July in the spectacular parkland setting of Sutton Hall, Yorkshire home of Sir Reginald and Lady Sheffield. Now in its 118th year, the show offers members and visitors a full schedule and a great day out with lots to see and do. A wide range of livestock classes including fur and feather, cattle, sheep, pigs and goats, rabbits, together with farm and garden produce and Women's Institute, over 50 trade stands and traditional entertainment for all the family. Attracting top class competitors from the fields of show jumping and showing the horse show is renowned in the North of England for the quality of entrants. A good selection of unaffiliated and fun classes ensure local competitors are not left out and a gymkhana at the end of the day is always great entertainment!

Highlights

Entertainment on the show field came in a variety of forms, with a traditional Brass Band playing, Parade of Fox Hounds from the York and Ainsty South Hunt and a variety of Trade Stands for you to see. We also have an extensive display of Classic and Vintage Vehicles with the recent addition of Vintage Agricultural Vehicles. Anyone with vehicles who would like to display them in the future can contact us for more details. For the children we had a selection of "Funfair" rides, Uncle Mals Crazy world of Magic, side stalls and Archery. If you did not have a dog to take part in the Dog Show, Agility Test or Terrier Racing you could have gone along and watched from 2pm as all these are highly entertaining classes. On site catering was magnificent and very reasonably priced, it included a "Real Ale" bar and a variety of food outlets serving Hot and Cold food of every type, plus Ice Cream as it was a hot and sunny day.
