Gauge 1 North

The first Gauge 1 North show was organised by the Yorkshire Group in 2010 . The event has gone from strength to strength since then.

The 2026 show is on Saturday 11 July from 10.00 to 16.00 at the Agricultural Business Centre in Bakewell, Derbyshire, DE45 1AH; entry is £8.

Gauge 1 North is open to the public, and offers particularly good support from the trade, with around 25-30 suppliers attending every year.

Bakewell is a charming small town on the banks of the River Wye in the Derbyshire White Peaks. Chatsworth and Haddon Hall are nearby, and it makes an ideal location for a weekend away. For more information about the area, see this site.

The Agricultural Business Centre is a compact venue, all on one level with extensive parking on site. Please make sure to follow any parking notices: the area to the front of the hall is reserved for coach drop off and blue badge holders. The centre of Bakewell is a ten minute walk from the hall.

Refreshments are available on site on Saturday at the Farmers' Feast cafe next to the show hall.
