Let us pray for some decent weather.

This little show is one of the best for all-round action and that very different backdrop,
you just do not get anywhere else.

Looking forward to seeing the Vulcan display at this show.
Fingers crossed. :vulcan:

CANCELLED EVENT - THE VICTORY SHOW, COSBY

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cancellation – The Victory Show, Cosby nr Leicester

Due to the sudden and unusually persistent heavy rainfall, a decision was made by the organisers of the The Victory Show to cancel the event on both Saturday September 6th and Sunday September 7th.

As with any cancellation of any event the very difficult decision was taken following discussions between the organisers, exhibitors, police and other safety services. It was based on concerns for the visitors and the disappointing conclusion was that we could not fully safeguard them or provide an event in these conditions deemed worthwhile for them to visit.

Despite a huge effort by everyone involved to improve the conditions of the waterlogged public car parks and ground display sites, it became clear that significant areas of the fields and of the battleground were unusable. For further information please visit www.victoryshow.co.uk where further updates will be published in due course.
