History

Established in 1855, the Ryedale show has run almost continuously for over one hundred-and-fifty years. In 2007 the show was cancelled for the second time ever because of torrential rain the preceding week and a waterlogged show field.[2] It was cancelled in 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[3]
