Introducing The Stirrup & Vine
The New Forest Show has always been about more than the food, shopping and livestock. It’s about the atmosphere – the unhurried pace of a summer’s day in the countryside, the hum of the Showground, and the pleasure of taking a moment to soak it all in. In 2026, there’s a brand-new spot to do exactly that.
Say hello to The Stirrup & Vine!

What is The Stirrup & Vine?
The Stirrup & Vine is a brand-new wine bar at the 2026 New Forest Show, brought to life in partnership with Hall & Woodhouse – the Dorset-based brewery and hospitality group with deep roots in the region. True to the spirit of the show, it blends countryside charm with quality, offering visitors a dedicated space to relax, enjoy a glass of wine, and watch the action unfold in the Dog Ring.
The name itself was chosen by the public in a competition – a lovely community touch that reflects the warmth and participation that’s always defined the New Forest Show.
