It is the premier summertime agricultural event in the North West of England whose history spans more than 175 years.

The two day event attracts in excess of 80,000 visitors, traders and competitors from across Britain whose participation is key to the atmosphere and spirit of the Show.

With its roots firmly embedded in farming, the Royal Cheshire County Show prides itself on its many competition classes for cattle, sheep, pigs and dairy goats plus hundreds of classes for light and heavy horses, show jumping, rare breeds of livestock, poultry, pygmy goats, pigeons, cavies, rabbits and its dog show.

The Royal Cheshire County Show is known by generations of schoolchildren who, through their involvement at the Show, have received valuable life skills in farming, food production and environmental conservation.
