SHOWGROUND HIRE

The East of England Showground is the eastern region’s premier outdoor events centre. Situated close by the A1, 5 miles west of Peterborough in Cambridgeshire, it is the chosen venue for many prominent events and has become associated with many leading organisations from a variety of commercial sectors.

THE SHOWGROUND

The 250 acre Showground, with 125 acres dedicated to exhibition sites, hosts many different events all year round. The East of England Showground’s location and excellent facilities make it an ideal venue for conventions, rallies and for many of the country’s leading equine and livestock events, which are held here annually. Every building and internal complex within the Showground is connected to the mains services and water and electricity can be supplied to all sites inside the Showground.

THE BARN

The Barn is a clear span agricultural building which covers 26,000 sq ft, or half an acre, illuminated internally and fitted with power. With hard road access this covered area provides the perfect commercial arena. This building can also be fully lined to make an ideal venue for balls, parties and exhibitions.

NEW LICENSING LAW
Under the Licensing Act 2003, which came into effect 25th November 2005, the entire area of the East of England Showground is now licensed under Peterborough City Council as "a premises", which is advantageous to Event Organisers in considering the East of England Showground as a prospective venue, as we are covered under the license to hold any type of event, indoor or out.
