Welcome to the Old Basing and Lychpit Village Show web site


Show day, Sunday 7th September 2025.

Thanks to everyone who entered or visited the Show, it was another successful year. Again, the judges comments in all sections were very positive and the quality of the exhibits presented them with some difficulties in choosing 1st, 2nd and 3rd places. Photos of the exhibits can be found here, and a more detailed report of the Show will follow

The Committee's thanks go out to all of the non-committee members who helped out on the day and/or helped in setting up the Show. This help is essential to ensure the smooth running of the Show. And thanks to Katherine Antrobus, Transatlantic and world record breaking rower, who came along to present the awards.

The Committee also thanks those who donated items for the refreshments and produce stalls. And last but not least, thanks to all of the organisations that sponsored the Show by advertising in the 2025 schedule and/or by donating prizes for the raffle. A list of those organisations can be found here

2025 Annual General Meeting, Tuesday, 11th November 7.30pm

The 2025 AGM will be held in the Pavilion Tea Room, Recreation Ground. Please come along to hear more about the work of the committee, comments made by the judges and also to offer any suggestions you may have about future shows. All welcome.
