Alrewas Autumn Gathering

Come and join us for a series of community events around Alrewas over the weekend of the 4th and 5th of September.

Due to the COVID pandemic we have missed 2 successive Alrewas Shows (the only time this has ever happened in peacetime) and the 2020 Arts Festival, both of which are a major part of our village life.

So as we emerge from lockdown our Alrewas Show, Alrewas Arts Festival and Alrewas Island volunteers have created a relaxed outdoor series of events to give our local community the opportunity to get together and have some fun:

We have 2 main events planned:

Saturday 4th September 10am – 5pm: Horses, Hounds and more
A mini country show on the Alrewas Show field, with something for all the family, including Horse shows, classic cars, vintage tractors, dog show and agility display, working crafts displays, live band music and more.
There’ll be snacks and refreshments on sale and a licensed bar.
Free parking - but please come on foot if you can!

Sunday 5th September 11am – 5pm: ArtsFest on the Island!
A selection of Arts Festival activities plus some new ones.
Limited free disabled parking. No other parking is available on site so please do not come by car.

Further information can be found on the event website: www.alrewasautumngathering.co.uk

All proceeds from the events will be distributed to local charities and good causes.

Let's get together and start making up for lost time!

Entry into the show is just one benefit of becoming a member:

Access to Members Marquee:
- Inside seating with views over both show rings, and outside seating enclosures
- Ring side views of the Main Ring and Ring Two
- Fully Licensed Members Bar

About 3 weeks prior to Show Day Show members receive special entry badges which provide admission for 2 adults and up to 2 children to the Show Ground and the Members Marquee and Enclosure alongside the Main Show Ring.

The Members Enclosure has two outside seating areas where members and their guests can enjoy the attractions in the two show rings.

We prefer to save paper and postage where we can.

How much does Membership cost?

There are 2 types of membership:
Member: £20.00 per year
Vice President: £30.00 per year

Vice Presidents were originally past Presidents of the Society. However, a number of members requested to contribute more to the Society and as a result the Show council have opened up the Vice President Membership to all.
