Visitors
The Rural Crafts Association attends 28 county, agricultural, equestrian and horticultural shows each year countrywide including four independent craft and specialist food events at Christmas.
The summer season starts in May with Badminton Horse Trials and our pavilions can be found at all the premier outdoor shows until September. In November and December we present our Crafts for Christmas tour of shows over six consecutive weeks, promoting enjoyable Christmas shopping in six counties across the United Kingdom. These shows are within permanent and semi-permanent buildings which are heated, floored and carpeted.
We look forward to welcoming you to a Rural Crafts pavilion, please see our full list of events.
