Event Details

Sadly, we have decided to postpone the Craignish show until next year. Because of the new restrictions, what started as a fun, social event was becoming too difficult. Thank you to all who submitted entries, we will be in touch. Here’s hoping for next year!

————————————————————————————————————————————————————————-

26th – 27th September

11am – 4pm

Assuming all goes ahead with the planned path out of lockdown in phase 3, we hope to be holding the first of many Craignish Shows in September this year. This was in the calendar as one of our planned events for this year and we are delighted to have made the decision to go ahead with it – though somewhat altered and down-scaled to allow for social distancing measures and so that we can implement all necessary health & safety precautions. We’re keeping things simple this year but still with lots of different classes to participate in. We hope to see you there, either as a contestant or an observer!
