THE DATE for this year’s Llanrwst Rural Show has been revealed, and the event has some big things in store for patrons.
The annual event has been held for more than 140 years, but was cancelled in 2020 and 2021 due to the pandemic.
It will be held on June 24 at Station Road, and will have the usual sheep, cattle, light horses and Welsh cob classes, as well as a horticultural tent.
Homecraft competitions will take place, with a pet dog show and a dog agility course.
