Fairground Shows
The fairground show was a key element of the early fairs,
and the origin of the term 'showman' relates directly to the art of travelling
and managing a fairground show. Over time, with the mechanical and technological
advancement of fairground rides, the show became an aspect of history.
The story of the fairground show is as exciting as the show itself. The
showmen had to adopt, change and be creative and imaginative with their
presentations. A history of fairground shows, and some insights into key
types of fairground shows, is included in this section.
