We have a great line up of main ring entertainment for 2023 as well as a range of craft and rural skills demonstrations, and various other entertainments around the showground.

With a full programme all day we hope you will be able to fit in everything you want to see and do alongside all of the competition classes and exhibition stands around the showground!

This year's main ring includes:

• The ever-popular Black Mountains Falconry, also showing their birds in a static display all day as well as their interactive flight display in the main ring
• New for this year, The Mighty Smith, a fantastic stongman act, fun for all
• Also new for this year, Little Nippers terrier racing, with audience participation!
• We'll be kicking off the main ring activities at around 11:30 with
  a free Zumba class from local teacher Bonnie Vermeire,
  followed by official opening by Teg and Kate Humble,
  then Abergavenny Borough Band

With plenty of seating around the main ring, why not rest a while and enjoy the atmosphere.
