Closing date Friday 5 July 2024, 12pm

For those that attended last year's show, we captured lots of great feedback... fun laid on for our younger residents and the overall relaxed feel as we all chilled in the afternoon and then danced ourselves silly in the evening! The ‘bring your own picnic' was truly a success and something we will be building upon for the shows ahead.

This year's show will feature many of the plus points of last year's event whilst retaining everything that is loved from our traditional mid-summer fete.

The event will be a seamless celebration from afternoon fun into evening party. One ticket will give you access to the entire day and evening, and children go free with each paying adult! Visitors can purchase tickets on the day. Wrist bands will grant you access to all areas! Ticket prices remain at £5 per adult with accompanied children FREE.

Come early - stay late! We have set aside a large central space where you can set up your day and evening camp. Bring a picnic, bring a bottle. But most importantly, bring yourselves and your friends. At last year's show, we had a number of fabulous settings created by guests - with fairy lights, soft seating and chilled decorations. We would love to see more 'bases' where you can enjoy the show and live music. Make it your home for the day... and evening!

Music line-up for the afternoon and evening - see below.

Our famous KIDS ZONE will be bigger and even more exciting!

And what’s more – IT’S ALL FREE!

MUSIC AT THE '24 SHOW AND PARTY!

Jazz in the afternoon
Butchers Brew (led by local trombonist, Andrew Butcher) is a long established jazz sextet that plays lively and accessible modern jazz. The lineup is sax, guitar, trombone, bass, piano, drums. The band has appeared at venues across the south of England, including being a mainstay of Ealing Jazz Festival and the Drayton Court Festival in West London, and played at the acclaimed Brecon Jazz Festival.

Shuffle Tunes
Shuffle Tunes is a choir with a difference. It is a local choir that sings the music that it chooses. It doesn't stick to one genre; if it can be done, Shuffle Tunes will do it! Led by an experienced choir leader Shuffle Tunes is a fun, sociable, dynamic and positive choir. Dulcet tones for an afternoon in the park.

During the evening…

Open Mic
Introduced for the first time last year, we uncovered huge amount of talent from across the villages. This year we're allocating more time and will have more backing musicians to bring this untapped talent to the fore! If we can plan your set ahead, it will make the performance even better... so do drop the Director of Music a line so that we can be prepped, ready and willing! Email dominic.whittle@gmail.com with your details and song list.

Dance Cult 10
Dance Cult 10 are a band who will bring the party to our evening fun and play all night long! They play music from the most amazing artists inc M-people, Robbie Williams, Stevie Wonder and many more. They've played before and brought the house (tent) down!

Hospitality - Food, Drink and more!

For those visitors setting up for day and evening camp in your gazebo’s, there is a dedicated area as per last year to set up base. This year we’ll be keeping a route through from the main arena to the stage – it will be marked out when you arrive. Please keep this clear!

Remember, there will be a prize for the most creative presence within the picnic area – decorate and make your space twinkle and the envy of all others! The award will take place around the time of our raffle.

You are more than welcome to bring an afternoon picnic. But for those who want to have the day off, here’s what’s on offer…

About our July Summer Show

The Seale and Sands Show is a traditional village fete held on The Sands Recreation Ground. We like to think we put on a great show, providing something for everyone.

At the heart of the show is the event arena where the fun and games, demonstrations and races take place. Surrounding the arena are food and drink stalls, trade stalls, classic games such as coconut shy and penalty shoot out, and attractions like classic cars, motorbikes and other interesting vehicles and a giant fairground organ.

We have an exhibition marquee that houses the exhibits of the art and craft, floral, produce and children's competitions. Later the show transforms into an evening party with great street food, drinks and entertainment until late.

Spend the afternoon AND evening with us on the first Saturday in July and join the fun...
