I fear there may not be many there, thats what i have heard round the shows. I think the expense of the Yorkshire puts some exhibitors off.

Hi Due to lack of entries the classes for the Dexters have been cancelled. :( there is also talk of the possibility of the show being reduced to two days because of the dreadful weather so if you are thinking of going I would check out their website for the latest news and definitely take your wellies. :( :(

website is saying that they have concerns with car parks and possibly going to offer park and ride from sites further away.

Local tv news last night suggested a decision on the show would be made on monday.

this was posted on their website today

As of 12.43pm, 7 July 2012
The Great Yorkshire Show will go ahead but visitors should be aware that car parking on the showground is much reduced due to the recent heavy rain. Work is continuing around the clock to try to improve parking areas.
Park and Ride: A new Park and Ride service will run from 1.5 miles south of Harrogate, at Plumpton Bar on the A661 Wetherby to Harrogate road. There will then be a free shuttle bus service to the showground.
Public transport: Northern Rail has additional services into Harrogate, plus extra carriages. See: http://www.northernrail.org/journey/planner/
More free shuttle buses will run from Harrogate Railway Station in the centre of town to the showground.
Advice:
- Please car share if at all possible
- Please consider using public transport
- Please remember this is an agricultural show, the weather has been very wet and choose appropriate footwear.
Gates open at 7.30am each day.
Thank you
