Balmoral Show
About Balmoral Show
he Balmoral Show returns to the Eikon Exhibition Centre in Lisburn this May, promising four days packed with farming displays, family entertainment and a celebration of Northern Ireland’s agri-food industry.
Organised by the Royal Ulster Agricultural Society, the show has been running for over 150 years and continues to draw crowds from all corners with over 3,500 animals, 500 trade stands and a full programme of competitions, food experiences and main arena displays.
Families can explore everything from sheepdog trials, cookery demonstrations and the famous Cattle Parade to children’s activities in the dedicated play areas. The ever-popular Downtown Show Stage provides live music and entertainment beside the Main Arena, while the return of the Glenarm Castle Mini Land Rovers is sure to be a hit with younger visitors.
This year also sees the arrival of the world-famous JCB Dancing Diggers for the first time, performing impressive manoeuvres in the Main Arena each day.
For those looking for a gentler pace, new sensory zones, horticulture activities and quiet sessions in the funfair offer something for children of all learning styles. Visitors can also meet exotic animals, view prize-winning livestock or browse hundreds of indoor and outdoor shopping stands.
With so much to see and do, the Balmoral Show remains a highlight on the Northern Ireland events calendar and a firm favourite for a fun family day out.
