Simonside Country Fair near Rothbury

Simonside Country Fair started as a clay pigeon shoot in 1985 and has evolved into a small and friendly local show.

Throught the afternoon as well as the timetable of events in the main show ring we have a whole lot more happening:

Cumberland and Westmorland championship wrestling;

Northumbrian produce stalls, craft, food and plants;

Meet Marcus the Roman Centurion;

Chain saw sculpture;

Sheep Show;

Ferrets, Pigs and Alpacas and small animals and poultry for children to meet along with a Smallholders' display;

Music from internationally acclaimed "Steel Quake" band of Wooler and from our local musicians in the brilliant Rothbury Highland Pipe band and the Alnwick Northumbrian Pipers;

Clay Pigeon shoot; Quoits;

Industrial tent with competitions for adults, children and schools;

Plus much much more.

Bring the family and come along to join in the fun!
