Billed as 'probably the largest village show in England,' Heckington's Agricultural Show is claimed to be part of the hamlet's 900 year old Feast Week Tradition.

The first show was held in 1864, moving to its current site to the north east of the village in 1867 at the invitation of William Little, whose family continues to host the event.
