Cornwall getting ready for biggest agricultural celebration of the year

The annual event is more than just an agricultural show; aimed at the whole family, it offers a diverse array of activities and attractions.

Taking place from June 5 to 7 at the Royal Cornwall Events Centre near Wadebridge, the show is a blend of entertainment, food and agriculture, featuring top-tier livestock and equine competitions.

"There'll be three days of fun, food and farming, with an incredible programme of live entertainment, fantastic livestock and equine competitions, hundreds of trade stands, and delicious local food and drink", a spokesperson said.

"For more than 200 years, the Royal Cornwall Show has proudly showcased Cornish tradition and heritage, whether that be through agriculture, business, or innovation, and 2025 will be no exception.

"At the heart of the show will be the Creative View Countryside Village and the Rural Skills Area, showing everything from falconry to ferret racing.

"Top competition can be found across a wide range of livestock and equine classes, as well as smaller animals such as dogs, rabbits, and caged birds.
