The show's former venue was the Carnival Fields off Water Lane and a small agricultural show was included, featuring animals from nearby farms. In recent years it has been held on the playing fields of Wilmslow High School and it has got bigger but the agricultural show was omitted in the 1991 Foot & Mouth outbreak and never returned. Going back even further there used to be Wilmslow Carnival, complete with a procession through the town.
It has often been plagued by rain. The 2007 show was cancelled due to the weather.
