ROTHERHAM GEARS UP FOR WEEKEND OF FUN Rotherham is gearing up for a weekend of celebration, creativity and family fun as the beloved Rotherham Show returns to Clifton Park for two action-packed days. The region’s biggest free cultural festival will make a welcome return to Clifton Park on Saturday 6 and Sunday 7 September. The much-anticipated event, expected to attract thousands of show goers from across the region, will once again transform the park into a vibrant hub of entertainment, with something for all ages to enjoy. From live music and outdoor theatre to circus acts, sports, comedy and fairground rides, the Rotherham Show promises a weekend to remember. Among the many
highlights are the return of crowd favourites such as the Strongmen competitions, Companion Dog Show, Vintage Vehicle Display, and a host of roaming performers throughout the park. The Children’s Capital of Culture Area will showcase the incredible talents of Rotherham’s young people, while the Great Bullzini, the UK’s leading high-wire walker, will wow crowds as he takes to the skies above Clifton Park. The Made in Rotherham Horticultural show makes a welcome return, as does the laugh out loud chuckle tent, featuring comedy performers from across the UK. There’ll even be a hint of nostalgia with the chance to play retro video games from the national video game museum.

And, in a show first, board game fans can take part in Rotherham’s biggest ever game of snakes and ladders thanks to a huge land art commission by Yorkshire artist James Brunt. A wide range of stalls, street food, and local traders will also be on hand, offering everything from handmade crafts to tasty treats. Organisers say the show is more than just an event - it’s a celebration of the community spirit that makes Rotherham special. Cllr Lynda Marshall, Cabinet Member for Street Scene and Green Spaces, said: “The Rotherham Show is a true celebration of everything that makes our borough so special - its creativity, diversity, and incredible community spirit.
“With something for all ages, from live music and theatre to fun workshops and fantastic food, it’s the perfect way to spend the weekend with family and friends. I’d encourage everyone to come along, soak up the atmosphere, and be part of this amazing free event - you won’t want to miss it!”
