ITS SHOW TIME – ROYAL WELSH SHOW 2024
The pinnacle event in the British agricultural calendar, the Royal Welsh Show takes place at the showground in Llanelwedd, Builth Wells from 22 – 25 July 2024.
On the outskirts of the Bannau Brycheiniog / Brecon Beacons National Park , each year the Royal Welsh Show attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors to the heart of Mid-Wales to come together and celebrate the very best of Welsh and British agriculture. The Show is an action-packed four-day event of exciting competitions, livestock, forestry, crafts, countryside sports, shopping, food and drink, a 12-hour programme of non-stop entertainment, attractions, displays and much more.
As usual, there is a jam-packed schedule of livestock classes and special awards for a wide range of agricultural and rural competitions, attracting entries from far and wide of those competitors hoping to go home with a much-coveted Royal Welsh rosette.
Along with the fantastic livestock, the Royal Welsh Show provides something to interest everyone with a wide range of displays and attractions. Returning for the first time since 2010, the JCB Dancing Diggers will join us in our iconic Main Ring, along with a Heavy Horse musical display and a special celebration of Welsh agriculture performance.
More highlights in the Main Ring will include The Regimental Band of the Royal Welsh, one of the very few all-brass bands within British Army Music, and The RAF Falcons, the UK’s premier military parachute display team, with their exciting free fall display at speeds up to 120mph. Also returning to entertain the crowds will be Tristar Carriage Driving, Meirion Owen and His Sheepdogs, Inter Hunt Relay and much more.
New for 2024, we will be launching our Horticulture Village, celebrating all aspects of horticulture in Wales – from community to commercial growing, competitive showing and displays, alongside promoting the health and social benefits of gardening, education and building a resilient supply chain of sustainable Welsh produce.
The Food Hall will once again be a hive of culinary activity, showcasing the very best produce that Wales has to offer. After the successful launch of the brand-new Welsh Food Village last year, Gwledd | Feast will feature an array of delicious food and drink options, along with a live music stage and seating to relax and soak up the atmosphere. A wide range of companies will take part in the Royal Welsh food showcase, creating a real microcosm of the Welsh food and drink industry from savoury delights to sweet treats.
