 Livestock - Cattle & Sheep

The Livestock Show with one of the largest displays of Cattle and Sheep in the County
"Heckington Show is a highlight in my calendar, such a great atmosphere...... Absolutely brilliant"   
Secretary of Lincoln Red Cattle Society. 
​No agricultural show is complete without a great show of livestock

For visitors look out for:
  • The official sheep auction on Sunday & the country's largest one-day show of Lincoln Longwool Sheep
  • A sheep shearing competition that has twice broken the British record for the heaviest fleece
  • Guess the weight of the Lincoln Red – a fun competition open to all (both days)
  • Wool spinning demonstrations
  • Special displays - Lincoln Red Cattle, Lincoln Longwool sheep and Lincoln Buff Poultry

For exhibitors: 
  • One day attendance only on a Sunday, and at a weekend – easy to fit into a busy show schedule
  • A friendly, efficient set up which makes showing a pleasure
  • When you’ve finished, loads of other attractions, that make sure everyone has a great day out
  • Highly accessible – from the north and the midlands only 20 miles from the A1 and on the A17 from East Anglia.

New exhibitors interested in coming are very welcome to come and have a day with us - please email us for details.
