Getting to the Showground

Due to recent weather conditions, the dedicated Park & Ride service will no longer be operated from off West Ashton Road. Instead, there will be two Park & Ride services from the following locations. For Exhibitors, the Park & Ride service is from Claringdon College, From Road, Trowbridge. For visitors, please use the Park & Ride service from Wiltshire College, College Road (off From Road), Trowbridge.

Both Park & Ride services are courtesy of Chandlers Coach Travel and regular free buses will drop off and pick up from the Tesco car park – just a short walk over the footbridge from the showground.

The town centre site is easily accessible for people travelling by bus, taxi or train.  Timetable information is available from:

Bus/train
National Travel Line Service: 0870 608 2608

New Show management

The West Wilts Show is an initiative of the West Wiltshire Economic Partnership and is now managed by the Wessex Association of Chambers of Commerce.

Welcome to the new West Wilts Show website.

This year’s event will be the 10th bi-annual Show held in Trowbridge Park and the Civic Hall over the 3 days of 26, 27 and 28 July. The Show is the largest free event of its kind in the South West and this year will see a record number of exhibitors and stands.

There will be a number of new attractions including music and art workshops, a graffiti wall and mobile skate park along with favourites of previous years.

The Show will be supporting three local charities, Alzheimer’s Support, West Wilts Link Scheme and the Citizens Advice Bureau West Wiltshire.  Each of these charities will have a specific fundraising day at the Show and you are urged to support them generously.

The next West Wilts Show will take place on Thursday 26, Friday 27, Saturday 28 July 2007 in the Town Park in Trowbridge.

The Show first took place in 1989 and has grown into the biggest free-entry business and community event in the region involving the five towns of West Wiltshire. Its strength is its variety - there really is something for everyone. It offers a wonderful day out for the whole family and its success is demonstrated by the fact that up to 100,000 visitors and 400 exhibitors attended the last Show in 2005. So don’t miss out, be part of a show that celebrates all aspects of West Wiltshire life.
