Powderham is one of the busiest green-field event sites in the South West. We’ve hosted the biggest celebrities in the world, the likes of Sir Elton John, Sir Tom Jones, Coldplay and Little Mix. For the last 5 decades Powderham has opened the gates for Classic Car Shows, Family Adventure Festivals, Garden Festivals, Food Festivals, Dog Shows and Sporting Events… We love nothing more than crowds of smiling faces, and being that place that people are making memories.
