The Great Yorkshire Show is one of the UK’s most prestigious agricultural events, held every July on the Great Yorkshire Showground in Harrogate, North Yorkshire. Organised by the Yorkshire Agricultural Society, the show celebrates the very best of British farming, food, and countryside life. Spanning four days and beginning on the second Tuesday of July, it attracts over 140,000 visitors from across the UK and beyond.

Each year, the show brings together thousands of animals, farmers, food producers, and rural businesses, offering an unrivalled showcase of agricultural excellence and innovation. Visitors can enjoy livestock competitions, equestrian events, and the latest developments in farming technology, alongside cookery demonstrations, shopping, and family entertainment.

The Great Yorkshire Show also provides a platform for industry professionals to share knowledge, discuss the future of farming, and celebrate the people who make the countryside thrive. With its unique mix of tradition and innovation, it remains a highlight of the Yorkshire events calendar and a proud celebration of rural Britain.

Great Yorkshire Show Announces 2026 Dates Following Record-Breaking Year

The 167th Great Yorkshire Show will take place from 14 to 17 July 2026, following a record-breaking event in 2025 which attracted 140,000 visitors over four days.

The 2025 show was a sell-out success, celebrating the very best of British agriculture and rural life. More than 8,500 animals were exhibited in pursuit of coveted rosettes, while innovation and the next generation of farming were showcased in an expanded Innovation Zone and at the Future Farmers of Yorkshire Breakfast Meeting on the GYS Stage.

Highlights of the week included a wedding, five national breed championships, and the popular Britain’s Fittest Farmer competition.

The show also welcomed a number of high-profile visitors, including politicians and well-known television personalities such as Helen Skelton, Matt Baker, Peter Wright from The Yorkshire Vet, and Rob and Dave Nicholson of Cannon Hall Farm.

Tickets for the 2026 event will go on sale in November 2025, with further details to be announced on the show’s website in January 2026.

Organised by the Yorkshire Agricultural Society, the Great Yorkshire Show supports the charity’s mission to create a thriving future for farming, food, and the countryside across the region.
