Countryside Lincs 2027

Countryside Lincs returns to the Lincolnshire Showground on Sunday 11 April 2027, a day dedicated to farming, food and the countryside. It's put on by the Lincolnshire Agricultural Society, who describe the showground as a venue celebrating farming, food, education and community all year round. This particular event falls over the Easter break, so it's one of those days that works as a family outing when the schools are off.

The day is built around a few different things running at once. There are hands-on activities you can get stuck into, cookery sessions for anyone who likes to see how things are made, and demonstrations that show the practical side of farming and food production. Live entertainment is also on the programme, so there's music and performance to break up the more educational bits. It's a mix of watching and doing, rather than just walking around and looking.

Because it's run by the Lincolnshire Agricultural Society, the whole thing is rooted in the local farming community. The Society's focus on farming, food, education and community is what they do throughout the year, and this day is a concentrated version of that. It's a chance to see how food gets from the field to the plate, with the hands-on activities and cookery sessions giving you a more direct look at the process than you'd usually get.

It runs from 10:00 to 16:00 at the Lincolnshire Showground, Grange De Lings, Lincoln LN2 2NA. With the hands-on activities and the live entertainment, there's enough going on to make a full day of it.
