CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE for 2023
We are extremely pleased to be able to bring Llangynidr Show back to life on Sunday August 27th, 2023. Our last show was in 2019. Since then we had 2 years of enforced absence then last year we held a village fun day to rebuild local awareness and regrow the team of volunteers. With thanks to those whose support has seen us through this difficult period, we are now able to get back to running a full show.
This year we’ll have sheep classes and horse classes, as well as a dog show, stick making, vintage vehicles and scarecrow competitions. The Garden Show Society will be in the village hall as usual with a wide variety of gardening and craft classes. Bwlch & Crickhowell YFC will again be running a Speed Shearing competition after the main show running into the evening.
Alongside all these competitions we have market stalls and trade stands, and shearing and spinning demonstrations. The main ring will be busy with attractions that are popular every year, including Black Mountains Falconry, Abergavenny Borough Band, Little Nippers terrier racing and much more. A range of food stands and licensed bar will help to complete your day out. A particular focus this year is on the number of local organisations running their own activities. As an argicultural show societythe livestock competitions are central to what we do, but we are also a local body supporting the community of Llangynidr and the surrounding area. As such it is excellent to see the schools, sports clubs, craft bodies, churches, charities and so many more organisations getting involved. Between us we will provide a fantastic day of entertainment at the same time as taking the opportunity to raise funds and awareness, recruit volunteers and generally get more people involved in the life of the community.
The event is run by an excellent team of volunteers, both those on the year-round organising committee and the many others who come along before, during and after the show to help out. Having chaired the society through the thin years of 2020 and 2021, I am immensely grateful to all of them for their ongoing support and for all their hard work for the 2022 Fun Day and now the 2023 Show. I would also like to express my sincere thanks to the landowners, sponsors, advertisers and vice-presidents without whom we couldn’t run. And of course thank you to you, the competitors and visitors who make Llangynidr Agricultural Show such an enjoyable and interesting day.
We look forward to seeing you all in August.
Diolch yn fawr - Thank you very much.
