Nidderdale Show in Pateley Bridge cancelled due to covid
Nidderdale Show in Pateley Bridge, the Harrogate district's last agricultural show of the year, has been cancelled.
The event, which attracts about 15,000 people, was due to take place in Bewerley Park on September 20.
But Nidderdale Agricultural Society's show committee announced on Saturday it had decided unanimously to cancel the event due to covid.
In a statement on its Facebook page, the committee said:
The statement added the committee intended to put on a "bigger and better show" on Monday, September 19 next year.
The announcement means the vast majority of agricultural shows, which are a major part of summer life in the Harrogate district, have been cancelled.
However, the Great Yorkshire Show and Weeton Show are due to go ahead on July 13 to 16 and July 18 respectively.
