Tendring Hundred Show

The Lawford Park Horse Show

We previously announced that we were unable to continue to run a number of the horse competitions at the Tendring Show. This was not a decision we took lightly and there was an understandable amount of disappointment from the local community.

We are therefore delighted to announce that after ongoing discussions with local riding clubs, a local group has come forward to run a dedicated horse show. The Lawford Park Horse Show will be held at the Tendring Show on Saturday 13 July and will take place in the same field as it has on previous years.

All the usual showing classes will run and a full schedule together with entry forms will be emailed to exhibitors from the past two years. Although the event will be organised by a different organising group, exhibitor passes to the Show based on entries, will be provided as they have in the past.

The Lawford Park Horse Show team will need as many entries as possible in order to make the new competition a success. Please do show them your support. You can find more information at: https://www.facebook.com/LPHS19

Countdown to the Show

What they're saying about us

  • Tendring Show is a fun and friendly local agricultural and family show ran by local groups and organisations for mainly local people and those people who would like to travel to see such a unique yearly event. We love the show as it is a relaxing day to meet up with a lot of people you know.

    Anne Hutchby, Sid Hutchby & Sons Ltd

  • I have been exhibiting rabbit netting and ferrets at agricultural shows for longer than I care to remember. Now, at 69 years of age, there are only two shows I will do, and Tendring Hundred is one of them!

    Brian Brinded, The Rabbit Whisperer

  • Our Ice Cream stall in the Food Hall has always been popular come rain or shine – lots of regular faces visiting us each year.  The cookery demonstrations give the Food Hall a real buzz – It is always such a busy show and offers a really great family day out.

    Jane Hadley, Hadleys Icecream

  • The East Anglian Jack Russell Club and racing team are pleased to be associated with the Tendring Hundreds Show once again this year. We look forward to our day at the show meeting people on our stand and entertaining with our terrier racing in the countryside arena.

    Lilian Clark, East Anglian Jack Russell Club

  • I travel nearly 600 miles from the north of Scotland to be part of such a friendly atmosphere. Tendring is a Show like no other. There are no empire builders, everyone pulls together to make it a really great occasion. I hope to be able to make it for many years yet, well done everyone.

    Brian Brinded, The Rabbit Whisperer
