Uppingham Christmas Fatstock Show

Uppingham Christmas Fatstock Show

24/11/2021

After a lapse of 10 years during the Second World War and rationing the Uppingham Fatstock Show was revived by a committee of local farmers in 1949. The show was held on December 15th when 17 cattle were shown, 13 pens of sheep and 11 pigs.

The Uppingham Fatstock Show is a chance for people of all ages to get close to the area’s best cattle, sheep and pigs. Livestock to be exhibited will arrive from 7am, with judging taking place at about 10am. Presentation of challenge cups and special prizes will take place at 11.30am, followed by a public auction of the pigs and sheep at midday.
