Lambeth Country Show

Coronavirus (COVID-19)

It is with great regret and heavy hearts that we have to announce the cancellation of this year’s Lambeth Country Show.

The health and safety of our visitors, performers, suppliers and staff members is our highest priority. As such, the London Borough of Lambeth and its EventLambeth team have taken the tough decision to cancel this year’s show to support the efforts being made to contain the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak.

The dates for next year will be 17 and 18 July 2021.

We are deeply sorry for any inconvenience caused and wish you all the best through these trying times.

For more information on coronavirus, including what you can do to protect yourself, support your community and the impact of the disease on our services, please visit the Lambeth Council website, UK Government website or the NHS website.

We weren’t able to do the real thing this year, but we decided to keep the country show spirit alive with a virtual event to entertain you on what would have been the weekend of the show – Saturday 18 and Sunday 19 July. There was plenty for you and the family to get involved with and we have kept all of it online for you to enjoy whenever you like. All activities and entertainment are links and videos that you can watch and take part in at your leisure. We hope you enjoy what we have on offer as much as we’ve enjoyed putting it all together.
