The North Show opens tomorrow for two days of entertainment.

Held annually at Saumarez Park, it is the last of the traditional summer shows and hosts the Battle of Flowers on Thursday as one of its big draws.

Judging of the tented exhibits takes place on Wednesday morning, with those opening up to reveal the prize winners around lunchtime.

Wednesday morning also sees cattle, goats, sheeps and pigs being shown, while horses and pony classes are judged in the main arena.

Around the showground throughout the weekend are trade and charity stalls, food and drink vendors, while the Beer Tent hosts music on both nights.
