New Forest & Hampshire County Show 2024

There are two stand options within our Festival of Food Area. The first is a stand for the promotion and sale of products to be consumed at home, with tasters being allowed. The second is to sell products for immediate on-site consumption, i.e. 'food to go'. Please note that the number of stands available is limited and a selection process is in place and exhibitors must comply with current food & hygiene regulations. The Festival of Food is not located within a Marquee, instead each Exhibitor will be allocated an individual Shedded Stand. These are an aluminium framed tent with three PVC walls and a pull across front curtain. Banner rails if required must be booked separately. Exhibitors are issued with six one admission tickets and two trade vehicle parking passes per unit. All stands must be manned from 8.00am - 6.30pm daily. N.B. Access for vehicles onto the Showground is closed at 7.45 am on Show days and all vehicles must be moved to the allocated trade parking area by then.
