Preparations are well underway for the historic return of the Harlow Town Show, with tens of thousands of residents expected to attend the free weekend of entertainment next weekend.
The Town Park is being transformed ahead of the huge three-day event, as stages, attractions and event infrastructure begin to take shape and teams work around the clock to get everything ready.
Final touches are also being put to Harlow’s brand-new bandstand, which is almost ready to welcome thousands of residents for a packed programme of live entertainment throughout the weekend.
More than 70,000 free tickets have already been issued to Harlow residents, making the return of the Town Show one of the biggest events in the town’s history.
Further tickets for both the daytime and evening events continue to be released. Residents who have not yet secured tickets are encouraged to keep checking harlowtownshow.com as additional availability is released constantly.
If residents have questions about tickets they have reserved, they can email townshow@harlow.gov.uk.
Councillor Dan Swords, Leader of Harlow Council, said:
“The countdown is well and truly on. After decades away, the Harlow Town Show is coming back bigger, bolder and better than ever before – and you can now see it all taking shape.
