The Royal Norfolk Show gives exhibitors the chance to showcase their finest livestock at the largest two-day Agricultural Show in the Country.
The Show offers over 600 classes, 196 special classes and 258 championship classes for Cattle, Sheep, Pigs, Goats and Small Livestock.
Highlights this year include the Aberdeen Angus Cattle Society National Summer Show and the Kerry Hill Flock Book Society National Show. The Queen’s Prize Perpetual Challenge Trophy will also be awarded in the Pig Section this year.
Rabbits, cavies and eggs, will be among those featuring in the ever-popular Small Livestock marquee, which will again have a Championship Row. The area will also have a particular focus on education so we can find out about all of our favourite pets! Sadly due to the ongoing restrictions surrounding Avian Influenza, the difficult decision has been taken to cancel the Poultry Section at the Royal Norfolk Show 2022.
