Wednesday - THIS year's Spilsby Show is set to be another record breaker with great entertainment and lots of stalls and games.
All proceeds from the show, at the Ancaster Avenue Playing Fields, will be given to charity.
For the first time in 11 years the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight Lancaster Bomber will do a fly past after members of the Royal British Legion parade in the main ring to mark 90 years since the end of the First World War and the 90th anniversary of the RAF.
There are many news things at this year's show, including a martial arts display by the Kuk Sool Won Korean martial arts team, and a new heritage area which will include displays by groups who keep traditional crafts alive such as thatching and wood framing.
All the favourites will return this year such as the Shire horse display, the 10th anniversary of the road race and the regional heats of the national Tug of War contest.
The dog and flower shows, the craft and model tents and the fur and feather tent will also be back, as well as the vintage car and motorcycle display.
There will be loads of fun for kids with clowns and entertainers as well as six exciting rides.
The show will begin at 10am and will be officially opened by BBC Radio Lincolnshire's Rob Whiting at noon.
For the first time Ancaster Avenue will be closed during the show and access to the fields will be by the Beijing Dragon Hotel and Restaurant only.
The ground will be open to pass-holders only from 6.30am.
