Archive: this was a preview of Chatsworth Country Fair in September 2022.
Chatsworth Country Fair returned in September 2022 after the 2020 and 2021 fairs were cancelled.
The fair ran from 2 to 4 September 2022. Its preview advertised horse displays, motorbike stunts, hot air balloons, parachutists and a Spitfire display.
The 2022 announcement listed Mary Berry for her eighth year in the cookery demonstration tent.
The 2022 fair’s honorary president was television presenter Phil Spencer, who opened the show.
Spencer had previously visited for his television series Phil Spencer’s Stately Homes.
The preview announced a first appearance at the fair by Ben Atkinson’s Atkinson Action Horses team, whose horses and riders had appeared in television and film productions including Poldark and Peaky Blinders.
The original preview said Atkinson first performed a Roman-riding display aged 11 and formed his own team aged 16.
The preview also listed the Bolddog Lings FMX display team, the RAF Battle of Britain Memorial Flight and the Poppy Parachute Team.
Other advertised arena displays included mounted pony games, marching bands, falconry, gundogs, vintage vehicles and scurry driving.
The 2022 cookery programme advertised James Martin on Friday, Mary Berry on Saturday and John Torode on Sunday.
The preview also announced a cookery demonstration from The Clink, a charity that trains people in prison and supports them after release.
The preview listed a vintage fairground, climbing wall, bungee trampolines, clay pigeon shooting and archery among the activities.
Event organiser Sarah Green said: “We’ve pulled out all the stops to make this an event to remember. We know how much everyone enjoys coming to Chatsworth Country Fair, it’s a place to have fun and be entertained and maybe try something new, and also to spend time with friends and family to create some fantastic memories. We can’t wait to see everyone back here enjoying themselves.”
