The Okehampton Show is an annual agricultural festival that took place on August 13, 2026, in Okehampton, Devon. This one-day event is known for its rural entertainment and aims to celebrate the local farming community and broader South West culture.

Attendees could enjoy various attractions, including livestock classes for pigs, poultry, and horses, which proceeded as planned. A key highlight was the Devon Food Hall, filled with a diverse selection of food and drink makers from the South West. Additionally, the show hosted hundreds of stands offering a wide range of goods, from ladies' hats to fine glass crafts and country kitchen items.

The 2026 show faced challenges due to a bluetongue outbreak, which unfortunately led to the cancellation of cattle, sheep, dairy goat, and pygmy goat classes for the health and welfare of livestock. Despite these cancellations, show management encouraged the public to attend and support the agricultural sector during a difficult time.
