BAKEWELL SHOW: Spectacle jumps into action!

NDET 6-8-13 RKH 4 - Bakewell Show Equestrian Michaela Catterall on Master Sauce in the Topspec Middleweight show Hunter class.

Organisers are hosting a special equestrian event today (see video for a picture slideshow) with the official spectacle starting tomorrow and continuing on Thursday.

More than 60,000 fun-seeking revellers are expected to flock to this year’s show to enjoy an exciting mix of family-themed attractions and agricultural delights.

The main attraction promises to be Gullivers’ Carnival Spectacular, a Victoriana-style trick riding display presented by the Stampede Stunt Company.

And the much-loved traditional extravaganza – now in its 183rd year – will boast the usual animal contests, cookery demonstrations, horticultural exhibits, craft displays and vintage and classic cars.

Bakewell Show manager Janet Bailey said: “There really will be something for everybody.”
