Event information
Bowood Dog Show & Summer Fair is a fabulous family day out – whether or not you have a dog!
The 2008 show had over 10,000 visitors and raised just under £44,000 for charity. The 2009 show, held in the glorious grounds of beautiful Bowood House near Calne, offers more family fun than ever before. We have some fantastic new attractions including the Canine Corner where for the first time ever we will have an area of the showground dedicated entirely to dogs!
Animal lovers, young and old, won’t want to miss our wonderful animals which, this year, include Asian otters, the Kidsrome mobile farm, the Harness Goat Society, Newfoundlands, owls, falcons & the ever-popular donkeys.
This fabulous event is once again raising much needed funds for Macmillan Cancer Support and local charities including Wiltshire Blind Association, Springboard, Headway Bath, the Wiltshire Bobby Van, and Derry Hill PCC.
So make it a date – Sunday June 7 at Bowood House – and treat yourselves to a wonderful day out.
