Last updated 21st Jun 2024
It's over for another year.
The 2024 Lincolnshire show saw displays, stalls, livestock and even a bit of sunshine.
Organisers say there's been an increase in visitor numbers.
The facts are impressive: It's the 139th year, there were over 500 trade stands, 2000 livestock and equine entries and thousands of ice creams sold.
We spoke to Charlotte Powell show Chief Executive about how she thought it had gone.
I think it's been a roaring success
"I think everyone's feeling really proud - what this demonstrates is the wonderful Lincolnshire."
"The community is all about coming together and celebrating the wonders of Lincolnshire."
"I think it's been a roaring success if I'm honest."
"We've had the beach and everyone wants to go to the seaside."
"Also we've had wonderful entries from our schools challenge this year."
"On top of that we've had action packed rings - but one - not two but several rings."
We also spoke to people running the food stalls.
Lincolnshire has risen to its finest as per usual
One told us: "It's been interesting - a range of people from all walks of life which has been really fun to see."
Another said: "Lincolnshire has risen to its finest as per usual for what's the county's premier event."
A third said: "The queues have been good - there's a lot of people here and the weather's helped."
And another food trader told us: "It's been quite busy - quite a lot of people wanting refreshments."
"The weather's stayed nice so it's all good."
