Main Ring

Main Ring events at the Great Yorkshire Show

The hub of the show with a packed daily programme from International Show Jumping to the Cattle Parade

The Main Ring at the Great Yorkshire Show is the envy of many, for not only is it one of the finest arenas, it plays host to three days of action-packed entertainment.

The Main Ring will provide the setting for the Cattle Parade and the International Class Show Jumping across the three days. Thrills and Spills are provided by the Scurry Championship and the Heavy Horse Classes provide the opportunity to enjoy the finest display of strength and beauty.

For prime viewing, take a place in our grandstand - theres no better place to sit back, relax and enjoy an afternoon's entertainment. Tickets can be purchased at Grandstand Kiosks on the day.
