Get set for a brilliant family day out at a traditional agricultural show with a big heart. Lovingly nicknamed The ‘Royal’ Cartmel Show by locals, you’ll see an amazing array of livestock, all competing for the red rosette from cattle, sheep, light and heavy horses, rabbits and more. Try local delicacies in the food hall, acclaimed chefs share their secrets in our Food Theatre and cheer on the Cumberland and Westmorland wrestling.

Your little ones will love the range of activities on offer, from archery to circus skills, bouncy castle, birds of prey and a few creepy crawlies. Shop stalls selling locally handmade gifts, clothing, homewares, outdoor, enjoy live music and admire the hand-made creations in horticulture and impressive Village Industries marquees. We’re grateful to Holker Group who continue to provide Cartmel Park as the home of Cartmel Show since 1897.
