25: A Showcase For a Community



Now taking a fallow year, Axe Vale Show showcased the very best that Axminster and the surrounding area has to offer, with the emphasis very much on participation and community involvement. In its normal routine it takes place in June at the Axminster showground just off the A35.
2025 marked the 27th anniversary of the event with and crowds enjoying a really good day out as well as helping with fundraising for Axminster. The show is a registered charity, staffed entirely by volunteers, who willingly give their time in order to organise, build and manage a two-day event that the local community and visitors alike can enjoy, as well as raising money for local worthy causes. We hope it will return.

”The Axe Vale Show is one of Axminster's largest events of the year, drawing people to the town from miles around. There is usually something for everyone so I wanted to make sure the whole family was represented in the banner design. The yellow marquee with the flower motif is a nod to to the event's striking and well-recognised logo.”
Location: Axminster Jewellers, West Street
