Crowds flocked to Axminster over the weekend as they welcomed the return of one of the town's biggest events, the Axe Vale Show.
The show – the first to be held since 2019 - was staged at Axminster Showground off Trafalgar Way over Saturday and Sunday, with thousands being welcomed through the gates over the two days.
Attractions around the showground included a food tent, flower tent, craft tent and toy and hobbies tent, as well as a bar and a huge number of stalls run by local businesses and organisations.
There was also a photography competition and a dog show.
In the main arena, entertainment was provided by the Western Counties Heavy Horses, Nick Gregory & the Misselchalke Gundogs and the Tano Taiko Drumming Group, as well as exhilarating BMX shows and displays by Axminster Gymnastics Clubs.
Local musicians also entertained on the live music stage and the kids were kept busy with Punch and Judy shows, face painting and rides on the Exmouth Express Train.
The Axe Vale Show is a charitable fundraising event for the charity Axe Vale Festival Limited and organisers would like to thank this year's show sponsors – Axminster Tools, WBW Solicitors and Chartered Financial Planners, and Debonair Dogz – Professional Dog Grooming.
