The East of England Showground is a large showground area (667,731sqm) located on East of England Way near Peterborough, Cambridgeshire, England. The Showground is owned by Bellway as of around 2019 and the site currently includes the East of England Arena and Events Centre and a motorcycle speedway stadium.[1] In September 2021, EEAS entered into a land promotion agreement with Asset Earning Power Group (AEPG). The purpose of the agreement was to develop new leisure facilities on the site and further the association with the Anglia Ruskin University.[2]
The showground was owned by the East of England Agricultural Society, formed in 1970 by the merger of several agricultural societies. Until 2012,[3] it was the organiser of the East of England Show held each year at the showground.[4][5]
