Oswestry Show is held on the first Saturday in August each year. A committee of approximately 40 volunteers and one part time Show Manager administers the staging of this event. The principle aim of the Show is to promote agriculture and rural ideas to the surrounding community.
We hope you will be able to join us at the Showground, Park Hall, Oswestry on Saturday 7th August to celebrate our 125th Show between 8:30 am and 6.00 pm.
