The 150th Driffield Show takes place on Wednesday 22nd July 2026.
This year’s event combines much-loved traditions and crowd favourites with an exciting programme of entertainment and new attractions.
There will be top-level competition livestock and equine classes, shopping, food, countryside activities and live entertainment across multiple arenas. This year Atkinson Action Horses return to the GSC Grays Main Ring. The team of stunt riders deliver a breath-taking performance or daring feats, precision horsemanship and heart-stopping action.
Leading the team is internationally renowned horseman Ben Atkinson, whose career has taken him across the globe, including training horses in Dubai and working on Bollywood film productions in India. His performances combine Classical Dressage, the highly skilled Airs Above the Ground and the exhilarating art of Cossack trick riding.
A spokesperson for the Driffield Show team said:
“Ben Atkinson and his team never fail to amaze us with their breathtaking displays. We are absolutely delighted to welcome them back as part of our 150th Show celebrations—it promises to be a real highlight of the day.”
