The Trimpley Heavy Horse Show 2018 is still on this year. You might want to bring some wellies and an umbrella though! The horses and exhibitors will be here and we look forward to seeing you.
Please note that the dog show organisers have cancelled so there will be no dog show this year. This is, unfortunately, outside of our control.
This year mark’s the 15th anniversary of the Trimpley Heavy Horse Show and we look forward to welcoming old friends and new friends on Sunday 29th July 2018. This year there will be plenty to see and do to keep you entertained. There will be tractor and trailer rides, horse and cart rides, donkey rides, fun fair, trade stands, refreshments, car boot, dog show, art displays and of course the wonderful heavy horses. The foals will be in the stables ready to meet you and there will be lots going on in the working field where you can stand and watch these beautiful creatures at work, as they used to do, ploughing and muck spreading. So please come along and help support us in raising awareness of the Suffolk Punch Horse, which is rarer than the Chinese Panda. All proceeds of the show are donated to several local charities. Gates open 10.00 am – show finishes 4.00 pm Admission: adults £6.00, children £4.00 (children under 5 are free) OAP’s £5.00. Car Boot £7.00 per car. It makes a wonderful day out for both young and old. Looking forward to seeing you in the summer.

Hi, just wanted to say that we had a brilliant day today. My daughter loves the horses, she wanted one (told het to wait a couple of years, she’s only 2).My son loved the tractor and trailer ride. My partner and I enjoyed looking at the horses and other animals an the prices were not breaking the bank. Wich makes a nice chance. Thanks
Thanks Mike and Alison for a fantastic weekend.. Will see you next year with Isambard in tow!
This was a wonderful day out. The perfect summer’s day…! Warm (but not scorching), relaxed, happy – we never heard a child have a tantrum all day -and the chance to see beautiful animals in an idyllic setting. What more could anyone want?
we have been coming to the festival for the past three years now, we love it, the suffolks are magnificent, i would buy one if i could.
I always really enjoy this event, and think what a splendid job Mike and Alison are doing of making sure their favourite breed of horse doesn’t become extinct. Imagine owning a herd of over 40 magnificent horses, all the same colour!
Will the festival be rearranged?
We are not sure if it will be re-arranged at the moment. It will definitely take place next year but if we do find another slot this year we will post it here!
Had a lovely day at your show yesterday. Even weather was quite kind, just one really heavy shower as we left. My 92 year old Mum really enjoyed seeing the horses in all their finery .Everyone was very helpful and made sure she had a good view from her wheelchair.
Many thanks to all for good day out.

Hello, I’m very sorry it’s taken me so long, but I’ve finally written the promised article about Trimpley Heavy Horse Day for the Suffolk Punch Society magazine. I ought to show it to you first, if I could have an email address to send it to, please?
I see the system asks for my email address without making it public. That seems a good way to send it to me.
