Lincolnshire Food & Gift Fair - postponed to 2021 23 Oct

Due to the ongoing Coronavirus situation and the risk of further local lockdowns, we have sadly made the decision to not run the Lincolnshire Food & Gift Fair this year.

As the event is usually held inside, the Lincolnshire Showground have decided it would not be viable to hold the fair in the same way this year. We would not want to put on an outdoor event that is not of our usual standard or risk having to cancel the event at the last minute due to local lockdown restrictions. 

The health and wellbeing of our team and visitors at the Lincolnshire Showground is our top priority and we wouldn't want to risk putting on an event that is unsafe for our visitors during this time.

Thank you again for your support and we look forward to welcoming you back to the Lincolnshire Food & Gift Fair in 2021.
