One of the UK’s biggest one-day countryside shows said it would be "pulling out all the stops" this weekend.

Hanbury Countryside Show is back with a special new animal feature, competitions, stalls and more.

The event, which takes place at Park Hall Farm in Redditch, is expected to welcome 15,000 people through its gates to celebrate the best of British farming and rural life.

It is also the first show to welcome a new Mini Pony Show and a Stuntworld International Display at the ETG Main Arena.

Organiser Diana Walton said: “As you would expect, many of our family activities are intended to demonstrate the importance of agriculture and the role of farming in providing food and conserving the countryside, and most are free.

“The show trail, where parents can help little ones interact with show sections and collect stamps, is one such example and great fun, and the Grand Parade of pedigree livestock is a true spectacle, which we encourage everyone to watch.”

Little ones can ride a pony, try out the toy tractors, have a go at archery, watch stonemasonry and furniture-making, ride the funfair, check out the Fun Dog Show, see gun dogs in action, and get up close to Aldabra Giant Tortoises.
