There’s something rather special about a proper village show.
The Braunston Village Show returns on Saturday 5th September 2026, bringing together local growers, bakers, makers and creatives for an afternoon that celebrates the talent found right here in the village.
Held at Braunston Village Hall and organised by the Braunston Village Gardens Association, it is one of those traditional community events that feels completely at home in a village like Braunston.
Event Details
The show takes place on:
Saturday 5th September 2026
From 2pm
Braunston Village Hall
The Green / Welton Road, Braunston, NN11 7HW
The Village Hall sits close to the heart of Braunston, making it a fitting setting for an event that is very much about the people who live here.
What is the Braunston Village Show?
The annual show is organised by the Braunston Village Gardens Association, a long-standing local group involved in gardening and community activities throughout the village.
The show gives Braunston residents the opportunity to enter a range of classes and put their talents on display.
For some, that might mean something carefully grown in the garden. For others, it could be something baked, made or created at home.
Part of the charm of the day is seeing just how much talent there is within one village.
There is always a little competition involved, of course, but the event is just as much about taking part, seeing familiar faces and celebrating what people in Braunston have achieved.
Fancy attending?
Local residents can register to exhibit at the show.
For adults, entry is £1 per person, with the opportunity to enter as many classes as they wish.
Entry is free for exhibitors aged 14 and under.
Entry fees are paid on the day when exhibitors collect their class cards.
The organisers have also produced a 2026 Show Schedule, which sets out the different classes available to enter.
If you have been growing, baking, making or creating something you are particularly proud of, this could be the perfect excuse to put it to the test.
A lovely part of Braunston village life
Braunston is a village with plenty of character.
It is well known for its canals, countryside setting and village atmosphere, but events like the Village Show give you a real sense of the community behind it.
Throughout the year, local groups and organisations keep the village calendar busy, giving residents plenty of opportunities to get involved and spend time together.
The Braunston Village Gardens Association is part of that community spirit, with activities taking place throughout the year alongside the Village Show.
Events like this might be simple, but that is often what makes them so enjoyable.
A village hall, plenty of local talent, familiar faces and an afternoon spent celebrating what people have grown, made and created.
