A celebrity farmer says this year’s Lincolnshire Show was “the best” he has ever attended.<\/p>\n
The annual event, now in its 141st year celebrating the county’s rural life and produce, was held at the Lincolnshire Showground on Wednesday and Thursday.<\/p>\n
It attracts thousands of visitors with its livestock rings, agricultural experts, garden show and local produce.<\/p>\n
Speaking at the show earlier, former Emmerdale actor Kelvin Fletcher said: “You’re doing something fantastic here, I’ll be back.”<\/p>\n About 2,500 animals were at the show this year<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n Fletcher won the 17th series of Strictly Come Dancing and has his own show on ITV, Fletcher’s Family Farm.<\/p>\n He told the show crowd that he had been to the Yorkshire Show a few times and was in three counties last week.<\/p>\n Comparing these to Lincolnshire Show, he said: “This is the best. The way this is laid out feels like an agricultural show.<\/p>\n “It’s got to be a commercial endeavour and really celebrate agriculture but the balance and layout is absolutely spot on.”<\/p>\n The show is known for its livestock competitions<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n Visitors were also quick to praise the event, describing it as a “fantastic day” and something that “brings all the community together”.<\/p>\n “There’s nothing like it, you have to come every year,” another person said.<\/p>\n The 2026 show featured about 2,500 animals, with events that included fleece competitions, showjumping and best in breed, and a young sheep handler event.<\/p>\n It also included street food, live music and equine competitions, and has now drawn to a close – until next year.<\/p>\n Listen to highlights from<\/em>Lincolnshire on BBC Sounds<\/a>, watch the<\/em>latest episode of Look North<\/a>.<\/p>\n Download the BBC News app from the <\/em>App Store<\/a>for iPhone and iPad or<\/em>Google Play<\/a> for Android devices<\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.aol.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A celebrity farmer says this year’s Lincolnshire Show was “the best” he has ever attended.
