We are looking forward to being there.

Who else to kick start this year’s show in the main ring at 10am other than the magnificent Gateridge Farm Suffolk Punch horse display, showcasing one of Britain’s oldest heavy horse breeds in all their chestnut glory. These gentle giants, with their distinctive golden coats and powerful frames, represent centuries of agricultural heritage.🙌😍

From ploughing to heavy hauling, military service to ridden work, these versatile horses have played an important part in British history and deserve to be celebrated.💪🐴

Did you know the Suffolk Punch is a critically endangered breed, with fewer than 500 purebred horses left in the UK, making them rarer than the Giant Panda. Every appearance is precious.😢

There is something truly magical about seeing their strength, grace and partnership with their handlers.💛

Certainly not one to miss, so get your tickets sorted now whilst they are still at the early bird prices.🎟️

Banbury Tractor Run attracts thousands of revellers each year and raises funds for the Katharine House Hospice. ♥️

All 100 tractors have been sponsored by local businesses, meaning the event has already raised £38,900 ahead of its launch on December 13. 👏

🗣️ Jennie Steenkamp, from RC Baker, founder and co-organiser, said: "This event not only brings joy to the community and vital funds for Katharine House, but it also highlights the resilience of our farming community in tough times."
