2024 SHOW ~ SATURDAY 7th SEPTEMBER
Wrea Green Show
Originally staged in a field next to the Institute during the 1940s by the Wrea Green Garden Produce Society, the Annual Village Show was re-introduced in 2016 by the newly formed Wrea Green Horticultural Society. The 2022 Show, held in a marquee behind the Institute, attracted 570 entries and was visited by hundreds of villagers. The Show is very much a village event and to qualify to enter you must either live in the village or the immediate surrounding area (click here to see a map), be a member of Wrea Green Institute or attend the village school.
Congratulations go to Ray Pickett (pictured left), who won the coveted RHS Banksian Medal for the most points in the Horticultural classes. The Show was was delighted to have North West Roofing Supplies as our main sponsor for the first time. The Duck Trail again proved hugely popular and congratulations go to the Owen family on Manor Road for their excellent winning entry of ‘Dub TV’ (pictured right). Thanks go to Roland L. Whitehead, Daughter and Granddaughters for again sponsoring the Duck Trail.
We will be staging our 2024 Show on Saturday 7th September. For the latest news and updates please go to our Facebook and Instagram pages (links are at the top of this page).
TThe 2023 Show weekend was blessed with superb weather which helped to boost visitor numbers to a record high.
The hot weather also helped to boost sales at the Beer Festival with hardly a drop left by the Monday evening and thanks go to Wareing Buildings who very kindly sponsored the souvenir pint glasses for the Beer Festival. Thanks to everyone who supported us on what was another highly memorable weekend.
