We have most of our results posted now on the competition pages.  Still awaiting the confirmed results for all 3 horse rings, and for the garden and craft show, but you will find the rest available now.

Our photographers have been busy sifting through the many pictures they took on a wet but enjoyable show day.  Plenty more to come, but we hope this initial set from Peter Childs gives a flavour of the day - plenty of rain and plenty of smiles.

As ever, we have a great line-up of main ring entertainment in 2018.  We are just finalising the programme timings which will be listed on notice boards around the showground on show day, but if you've been before you'll know we cram a lot in.

The programme will start a little after 11am, giving you time to start the day visiting a few of the other attractions around the show between 9 and 11 - a very busy livestock section, multiple rings of horse displays and competition, the farmers' market marquee full to the rafters with all sorts of goodies, many, many trade stands, and the list goes on...and of course you'll need a bit of time to buy your all-important raffle tickets for the grand draw.

Since forming in 2007 with the sole purpose of raising money for charity, the Wye Valley Axemen have been giving crowd pleasing displays at events across Mid Wales and the Borders. Apart from their expenses, all fees received are donated to charities which have been chosen for the year.  Contained within the displays are speed, skill and accuracy using razor sharp axes and saws as we bring to life the lumber jack techniques of years gone by.
​After a few years away from Llangynidr Show, we are thrilled to have the axemen back and we are really looking forward to their exciting display.

Weather permitting, we hope to see 2 displays from each of these excellent acts.  Also in the main ring, we will have parades of hunting hounds from Gelligaer and of the Monmouthshire Beagles, the opening ceremony at 12 noon, and the grand draw announcement at around 4:15 before we hand over control to Bwlch and Crickhowell Young Farmers Club for their 2nd annual speed shearing competition.

When choosing people to open Llangynidr Show, we like to cover a variety of interests related to the rural and agricultural themes of our show.  This year, at around 12 noon, we have a gardening aspect to the show opening ceremony.  This is only fitting as our sister event, the Llangynidr Garden and Craft Show, running in parallel on the same day in the Village Hall, is celebrating its 75th year!

So this year's show is being opened by Terry Walton (allotment expert, author, radio presenter...) and Lynne Allbutt (author, TV and radio presenter, barefoot walker...), both widely regarded for their gardening expertise (alongside their many other skills).

Timing to be confirmed, but at some point on show day in the demonstration tent, Terry and Lynne will also be ready to answer your questions in a "Gardeners' Question Time"-style session.  Please come prepared with your questions to make best use of their deep knowledge and skills.

Well done to all the winners and thanks to all the competitors for helping to make 2017 such an excellent show

The preparations for this year's show started pretty much straight after getting our breath back from 2016's show.

Competitive classes details are being finalised so we can make the competitive schedule available, e.g. at the Royal Welsh Spring Fair.  Main Ring entertainments are booked and timings being sorted out.  Demonstration tent participants and many other attractions are getting booked up now.  Trade Stand bookings and Farmers' Market bookings are going well - get in contact soon if you want to book.

This year we are selling Grand Draw tickets at £1 a ticket, both in advance and at the show itself - come along to any of our monthly Farmers' Markets to buy tickets anytime from this Sunday onwards - cash prizes confirmed and many more prizes to be added, we'd love to receive your donations of prizes.

We are very pleased to be working with Bwlch & Crickhowell Young Farmers Club this year, who are planning a speed shearing competition to run on the showground after the main show finishes in the afternoon, and we hope this will be the start of even more collaboration between the show society and the YFC, who have always supported the show, for example with their refreshments tent last year.

Please have a browse around the website; we are gradually filling it up with all the information you need to plan for your great day out with us on 27 August 2017, so keep coming back to learn more as plans get confirmed.
