I agree a great range of dispalys from Traction engines to dogs we all enjoy.
The shame is it should extend the hours i.e from 10am for more displays and i agree the funfair broke the bank and the refreshments were robbery !
But all in alll 8/10 |

First visit. Competed in many horse shows over the year. Thoroughly enjoying everything until the afternoon. I had looked at your website and there was nothing to warn me about the two "loud bangs" sounding like artillery fire or a fireworkcoming the main display ring in the afternoon. Even the lady commenting on the shire hire competitions apologised and said "not idela for horses". My dog was terrified and I had to walk her away from the show to calm her down. I returned to join my friends later and another loud bang from the ring. What on earth was going on? You had children on ponies, livestock and lots of dogs. The whole event was marred by this one piece of inconsideration. Otherwise the morning was fine and enjoyed talking to the huntsmen, enjoyed the morotbike display and the collies rounding up the sheep and ducks. |

We thoroughly enjoyed all the displays in the showring particularly the dancing diggers & motorbike bolddog and the farm animals, craft & trade areas were very interesting too but the fair was a huge disappointment the rides were very expensive and didn't last very long I paid £3.00 for my 2 sons to go on the trampoline for 1 minute a huge profit for the owner all the other rides were the same price for much the same length of time. If the trampolines had run a full schedule ie 6 children at a time at £1.50 per minute x 60 minutes per hour works out at a stagering £540.00 per hour, I don't suppose he took anywhere near that sort of money though, as his & all the other rides were running way below their full capacity. So other than your fairground we thought the Orsett Show offered excellent family entertainment at a family price. Get your fairground people to reduce their ride prices & extend ride times & next year will be even better. |

Ive been enjoying the show for years, and have come a long way from trying to sneak through the fence as a child ( uh hum !!) I had my 1st helicopter ride last year, and still find the event a great day out. Well done to those who still give voluntary time and effort to make the day so special for the rest of us. |
