Behind the scenes on Herefordshire's Euro showcase

This week a showcase of all that makes Herefordshire Herefordshire is taking over the European Parliament.

In a weird and wonderful twist of fate, at a time when all the talk is about leaving Europe, Herefordshire has a unique opportunity to introduce itself to an entire continent.

The showcase, which is in the heart of the European Parliament building and offered to regions on a rotating basis, is being curated by Hereford College of Arts (HCA).

Their best creative minds have been building an installation for weeks, and working with the business community to try and capture everything from our rolling hills and world-renowned vodka to our emerging tech industry and new university. In a display. That can be taken on a bus to Belgium.

No mean feat. Check it out below.

We’ll be covering the showcase here on The Shire, with live link-ups with Brussels and Herefordshire throughout the week.
