Our traditional country show is situated in one of the most beautiful locations in England.The show field experiences the spectacular back drop of some of the most beautiful lakeland fells including part of the Helvellyn massif.
Patterdale Dog Day is one of the few remaining genuinely traditional shows. 2024's show will be the 119th show to be held at Patterdale and we hope you will join us to enjoy the day.
