Join us in Gort as we celebrate 42 years of The Gort & District Show! From humble beginnings in 1981 with approximately 50 classes, our show has transformed into a vibrant annual event of indoor and outdoor displays.
We proudly showcase local crafts, art, photography, home and garden produce, alongside children and young people's sections. With demonstrations, displays and family entertainment, there is something to do for all ages!
Gort and the surrounding areas are fortunate to have a rich tapestry of cultures represented in our community, including those from Brazil, which we want to celebrate at our town show! Everyone is welcome to join in the fun and festivities!
