Welcome to Whittingham Village Show...
“Are
you going to Whittingham Fair,
Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme;
Remember me to one who lives there,
For once she was a true love of mine." |

Everyone is welcome to join in Whittingham Show - you don’t need to have an allotment, a large garden or be an expert in needlework. There are a wide variety of classes for all ages and abilities eg. pot plants, flowers, cooking, vegetables, needlework, jam making, painting, flower-arranging and photography - there is something in the show for you. |
Preparing for the village show is great fun and an opportunity to be part of the event instead of just a spectator. We often hear people commenting that their produce, flowers or cakes are just as good as those on display – however, they don’t get the thrill of exhibiting or the chance of winning a coveted Prize Card, because they haven’t entered.
This year we are delighted to announce that The Life Science Centre, Newcastle www.life.org.uk are sponsoring a special Scarecrow Competition to coincide with the BBC Doctor Who Exhibition at the Life Science Centre. The competition is to make an ‘Intergalactic Scarecrow’ in ‘out of this world’ attire and will be open to Adults and Families. The Prizes are :- 1 st - £15; 2 nd - £10; 3 rd - £5 and all winners will also receive a Family Ticket (worth £25.25 each) to the official BBC Doctor Who Exhibition which is running till the end of October.
Whittingham Show is a great day for the village, so why not join in and help make this year’s show a success.
