Grasmere Lakeland Sports and Show

Sun, 29 August 2027

The Showfield, Stock Lane, Stock Lane, Grasmere LA22 9SJ in Grasmere

Every August, bank holiday Sunday

The most famous of the Lakeland sports days, with guides races straight up the fellside, Cumberland and Westmorland wrestling, hound racing and a fun dog show on the field beside the village. Gates open at 9am. Watching the senior guides race from the field is one of the great Lake District spectacles, and worth planning a bank holiday around.
