Rutland Showground

Rutland Showground is a flexible venue in Oakham, offering indoor rooms and extensive outdoor space for organisers planning events of different sizes. The site covers around 150 acres across multiple fields, making it suitable for outdoor gatherings, festivals, rallies, sporting events and occasions that need room for marquees or other temporary facilities. Organisers can also hire the Rutland Pavilion, the Clubhouse and a smaller boardroom, with the right space depending on the format and expected attendance.

The Pavilion is a spacious hall for meetings, celebrations and dining, supported by catering kitchens. The Clubhouse includes a licensed bar, while the boardroom provides a more compact option for meetings or smaller working sessions. The venue promotes its spaces for private parties and wedding celebrations as well as conferences and community events, so planners can explore both formal and informal layouts. Tables, chairs and other optional items may be available as part of the hire arrangements, and additional facilities can be discussed when checking suitability and availability.

Outdoor organisers have access to fields, sports pitches, power points, parking and camping facilities, with showers and toilets available on site. The grounds can accommodate larger public events that require practical infrastructure and space for visitors, exhibitors or activities. The location is close to Oakham and within reach of the A1, making it a useful base for events drawing guests from across Rutland and the surrounding area. Event organisers can contact the team to discuss their plans, the areas they need and the available facilities before making a formal booking.
