Attractions

We always have loads of attractions to keep you entertained through the whole day, with our focus being on audience participation.

Every year we aim to bring new attractions to the show, especially those who are new and exciting. This policy often results in some quirky and downright eccentric proposals, which only add to the fun and entertainment.

Are you an budding entertainer who has an idea? Then head to the ‘About us’ page where you will find our contact details.

There will be are lots of attractions to choose from, and we’ll add them here as they’re confirmed – check back periodically to see the latest list.
