About Abingdon Air & Country Show

The show formerly known as Abingdon Fayre was formed in the year 2000 as a small fete.

Over the years it has grown into a respected annual event in the community calendar. However 2020 was not held due to Covid & 2022 we cancelled two days prior due to the HM Queens passing and the base shutting down as a mark of respect. 

The show relies on funds generated from the previous event which then helps to fund the next event. We are also adapting to newer formats to vary the show & comply with stricter regulations on certain criteria.

The show is run by a small team of  committee members who put it all together when spare time allows. 

The committee are also supported by a number of volunteers who assist with the build and break down of the show aswell as on the day.

All volunteers give up there spare time to help us which we are truly grateful for.

We would also like to thank all the past committee members and volunteers who have given their time over the years.  

• The show has donated just over £102,150 to charities over the years, of which:

• £83,895.70 to the Thames Valley Air Ambulance Trust.
