The Tysoe Flower Show & Fete attracts thousands of people from far and wide. Every year it evolves, becoming bigger and better, with more & more attractions. We have now spread over two fields, such is the scale of the show.
This traditional village fete has been running on and off since at least 1886 under different guises. But the one we all know and love today was resurrected in 1962 by Canon C T Bernard McNulty, Founder of the Village Hall, and was held firstly at Tysoe Primary School.
It's unsure when the transition was made to the playing fields, but it has definitely been located there since 1980 and has been held on the 3rd Saturday of August, only missing the Covid 19 years of 2020 & 2021.
There is a different main ring attraction each year with many side attractions including Morris Dancers, a dog display team, a dog show for members of the public to enter their beloved furry family member, sheep and alpacas, as well as vintage cars and tractors. There is music, fairground rides, children’s entertainment and of course plenty of food & drink stalls catering for a wide variety of tastes.
We are offering the opportunity for stall holders to showcase their products in our dedicated area for shoppers in Petticoat Lane. You will have a 5-metre pitch for your items to be displayed to what will be a high foot-fall event.
Stallholders are asked not to be a catering vendor, have a raffle or tombola as this would distract from the ones we have employed.
The public will be visiting between 1.00pm and 4.30pm, with stand build and break down outside of these times. There will be no vehicle movement allowed during 12.30pm and 4.30pm
