The Newbury Show has returned after three years of being cancelled.

Taking place at Newbury showground, the two-day event is taking place this weekend. 

Gates opened at 9am on Saturday with the show closing at 6pm for a hot air balloon display. Gates opened on Sunday at the same time with festivities finishing an hour earlier at 5pm.

The Newbury Show, or Newbury Agricultural Show as it is officially known, was last held in 2019 with nearly 55,000 people in attendance before the Covid pandemic struck.

Last year a deal with BBC's Countryfile to host the event fell through, leaving fans disappointed. But organisers have said they are expecting a good turnout for the re-booted festival. 

Organisers said it will have a "more local feel" with "countryside adventure for all the family".

Chairman Steve Ackrill previously told the BBC: "Whenever the show is mentioned, it gets such positive feedback - people want it back."

The returning event is being supported by headline sponsor and local business, Ramsbury Brewing & Distilling co Ltd.
