New Forest Show Membership 2027
Grandstand seats, the Members’ Lawn and Enclosure and a forward car pass, with early bird prices until 31 December 2026.
The members’ experience
The best seats, the best company
More than a ticket: membership gives you front-row views of the main ring, a relaxed base to eat and unwind, and the buzz of the Show enjoyed alongside fellow members. Tap a card to see more.
Grandstand seating & ringside views
Your membership includes raised, weather-covered grandstand seating overlooking both the East and West Rings, so you can watch every main-ring display come rain or shine, in comfort.
Prefer to be closer to the action? There’s front-row, ringside seating right alongside the ring too.
Somewhere to eat, drink & relax
Rhinefield Restaurant
Set on the Members’ Lawn with views over the North Ring, the Rhinefield Restaurant is the perfect spot for a proper sit-down meal: pre-book a lunch or an afternoon tea box. Dining and drinks are at additional cost.
Members’ Tea Room New in 2026
New in 2026, the Members’ Tea Room serves breakfast, lunch, and tea, cake and soft drinks throughout the day, with stellar views over the East Ring, where much of our main entertainment takes place. Dining and drinks are at additional cost.
In good company
Membership is as much about the people as the perks. You’ll be among like-minded members who come to enjoy the Show, whether for a single day or all three.
And by joining, you’re directly supporting the New Forest Show’s charitable work across education, conservation and the countryside.
Room to breathe
Beyond the buzz of the rings, membership gives you quieter spaces to sit, chat and take the Show in at your own pace.

A private area reserved for members only, with prime views of both the East and West Rings, upgraded toilet facilities and an exclusive bar.
Raised, all-weather seating overlooking both rings. Rain or shine, watch the main-ring action from a comfortable, sheltered position, and a great spot for photos of the headline acts.
Members benefit from reduced entry fees for equine and livestock competitions: a great perk for exhibitors and anyone who regularly takes part in the competitive classes across the three days.
Set on the Members' Lawn with views over the North Ring, the Rhinefield Restaurant is the perfect spot for a proper sit-down bite.
