General information (incl. location, events)
The Ryedale calendar is packed with exciting events and fun
filled days out. Our agricultural shows offer a great day's
entertainment and celebrate a traditional way of life in rural
Yorkshire. Where else can you see all kinds of livestock, show
jumping, onions the size of footballs and buy outdoor clothing
often at reduced prices?
If you enjoy the outdoors, events include open stables day,
celebrating Ryedale's horseracing connection, open gardens,
carnivals, fetes, steam trains and traction engines. The classic
and the modern are represented in local theatres and arts centres
and many of Ryedale's attractions organise special events.
Demonstrating the cultural side of Ryedale, local craft fairs,
antiques and collectors fairs and art exhibitions are held
regularly. From traditional pastimes to more contemporary
gatherings, there is something for everyone.
