Who We Are
We are a group of six female Showmen who have joined forces out of growing concern for the situation faced by the fairground industry and our community. Together, we have established Future 4 Fairgrounds with the aim of reaching out to a wider audience. Our objectives include celebrating our history, raising awareness of our current situation, and safeguarding our future.

Furthering our cause is the most important goal of our organization. We seek support, from the local community who visits the fairground.
