Dorset County Show

Creatures great and small appear every year at Dorset’s County Show.

In 2023, the gentle giants of the horse world have their own Heavy Horse Village. Visitors were treated to demonstrations of the ancient art of heavy horse logging. Dorset’s Toby Hoad is one of only 12 heavy horse loggers in the country.

At the other end of the equine size scale and for the first time at the County Show – in 2023 you could enjoy Shetland pony racing as these pocket-rocket ponies are put through their paces.

The Country’s finest Livestock were also on Show, competing to be crowned the Champion of the County Show.

More information on the 2024 to come soon!
