The Lorn Agricultural Show 2024 is set to be another vibrant celebration of rural life, taking place on Saturday August 3rd in the picturesque setting of Tralee Common Grazings in Benderloch. This annual event, a staple in the agricultural calendar, brings together farmers, families, and enthusiasts to showcase the best of the region’s farming and rural heritage.
At the heart of the Lorn Agri Show are its livestock competitions, featuring a diverse array of cattle, sheep, horses, and more. These competitions highlight the dedication and skill of local farmers, who present their finest animals for judging. The show is not only a competition but also an opportunity for learning, with demonstrations of livestock handling, shearing, and breeding practices. Gates open at 9am and the livestock judging starts at 10am.
In addition to the livestock, the show features an impressive display of agricultural machinery and equipment. This exhibition allows attendees to explore the latest innovations in farming technology, providing valuable insights into how these advancements can enhance productivity and sustainability on their own farms.
The Lorn Agri Show is a family-friendly event, offering activities and entertainment for all ages. Children can enjoy pony rides, petting zoos, and interactive educational exhibits, while adults might appreciate the craft stalls, food vendors, and live music that create a festive atmosphere. The popular dog show starts at 11am. Local artisans and producers showcase their goods, giving visitors a chance to sample and purchase a variety of regional specialties.
Adults £6, Children £3, families £15.
