The Sheep Show

New to The Agria Blenheim Palace International Horse Trials, The Sheep Show brings a lively mix of farming, education, and entertainment in a fun, family-friendly setting.

Running from their mobile setup, this much-loved show has been entertaining audiences since 1992 and offers a unique chance to learn about sheep and farming in an engaging and interactive way.

A Fun & Educational Experience

The Sheep Show introduces visitors to nine different breeds of sheep, each with its own story, characteristics, and quirky personality. As they take to the stage one by one – each with their own theme tune – you’ll discover fascinating facts about British farming.

And keep an eye out for Nobby the Norfolk Horn, the star of the show who always captures the crowd’s attention!

Live Shearing Demonstrations

Following the introductions, the team present a live sheep shearing display, complete with expert commentary. Audiences can learn why sheep are shorn, how it’s done, and the different types of wool produced – all explained in a clear and engaging way.

It’s a great opportunity to see a traditional farming skill up close and understand its importance.

Fun for All Ages

The Sheep Show blends education with humour, making it a fantastic children’s activity as well as something adults will enjoy. From the “woolly antics” of the sheep to the lively presenting style, there’s plenty to keep the whole family entertained.

The show even ends on a high note with the unforgettable “Sheep Show Shuffle” – a light-hearted finale that always gets a smile from the crowd.

A New Highlight for Families

Whether you’re interested in farming, looking for something fun for the kids, or simply want to enjoy something a little different, The Sheep Show is a brilliant addition to your visit.
