Weeton Show's decision to go against the grain in a year when virtually every other country show in the Harrogate district was cancelled resulted in a 3,000 crowd yesterday.

A sell-out crowd of 3,000 people enjoyed glorious sunshine when Weeton Show took place yesterday.

While other country shows in the Harrogate district, with the exception of the Great Yorkshire Show, chose to cancel due to covid, Weeton went against the grain.

The decision proved popular with the public as all 3,000 tickets were snapped up in advance.

The crowd was rewarded with stunning weather, the chance to browse about 65 stalls and activities including stuntman Dangerous Steve, welly wanging, egg throwing and a Punch and Judy show.

There were also numerous animal and craft competitions judged throughout the day.

Here are some photos.
