Disabled Showground access: Disabled people pay full price entry to enter the Show, essential carers go free.
Wheelchairs, mobility scooters etc: Users of wheelchairs, mobility scooters and other walking aids enter the Showground at their own risk and should be aware that this is a green field site, used as agricultural fields for cattle and sheep for 340 days of the year, therefore the ground under foot is uneven. Manoeuring around the Showground using these aids, even in good dry weather, is not recommended. We install a limited amount of temporary roadway, more for the benefit of vehicle access than ease of walking.
Dogs are not encouraged to attend the Heathfield Show as there are many areas of the Showground where dogs are not allowed. Dogs must be under control at all times and kept on a short fixed length lead (retractable leads are not acceptable) and never left unattended. On a nice day, the Showground can get very hot and there is not much shade. Please be aware, if dogs are left in cars, they will be liberated by our Stewards – with force if necessary.
Food outlets are located in the Food Marquee situated on the end of Row A in the north east area of the Showground. The Farmers’ Market and Picnic Area between Rows J and H. Additionally, there are food concession outlets marked on the Show ground map.
Lost children will be cared for within the First Aid centre at the Blue gate on the north side of the Showground.
It is suggested that groups of visitors organise their own meeting points. But, if this has not been put in place then meet at the Show Secretary’s office behind the Members area where an announcement can be made over the Show tannoy system.
Opening times: 8.30am - 5.15pm.
Toilets are available throughout the Showground, see the map in the centre of the Programme for their locations, alternatively there are maps located on the fingerboards around the Showground.
We distribute our programmes free of charge when visitors enter the Showgorund. The full colour souvenir programme can also be picked up from the Secretary’s office.
