The traditional horticultural, baking and arts competitions will, as usual, provide the heart of this annual event - but there are some new ideas for 2017.
All the regular classes will once again feature and everyone is encouraged to submit some entries. It is part of the fun to go into the village hall on Show afternoon to see how well you have done and to see who has produced the winners. Children's entries are particularly welcome for which there are no entry fees!
To celebrate the 40th anniversary of the first Star Wars film, there will be a fancy dress competition providing an opportunity for everyone to come dressed as their favourite Star Wars character.
There will also be a packed programme of activities throughout the afternoon including a "Buriton's Got Talent" competition. All aspiring performers will be able to demonstrate their skills as entertainers, perhaps as musicians, comedians, dancers or acrobats before a panel of judges gives their verdict on each performance.
There will also be some children's races, the Round the Field Challenge Race and the traditional egg-tossing finale.
The Show Schedule will be distributed early in June with the Parish Magazine with more details available in early August.
