This year's Royal County of Berkshire Show promises to be a major hit, thanks to a record number of livestock entered for its competitions. Around 1,000 sheep have been entered in addition to 229 pigs; the other categories are remaining strong, with numerous cattle, goats, poultry and horses vying for prizes in each of the categories. There will even be a national championship for Dexter and Highland cattle taking place at the event.
Visitors will be able to enjoy a range of attractions, including the Grand Parade of Livestock, a display from Honda's official motorcycle display team, showjumping, hot air balloons and live farrier demonstrations. They will be a wide selection of produce and handicrafts for sale from over 600 stands.
The Royal County of Berkshire Show is on the 20th and 21st September at the Newbury Showground, Thatcham, Berkshire.
