For over 150 years the Mullingar Agricultural Show has supported agriculture and
industry in Westmeath and throughout the Midlands.
Mullingar Show is run by the Committee of the Westmeath Show Society Limited, a
not-for-profit company and registered charity, on their showgrounds at Culleen,
Mullingar and attracts entries from across Ireland.
There are classes to reflect the traditional agricultural strengths of Westmeath
in pedigree & commercial cattle and sheep showing. Horse and pony showing are
traditionally very strong at Mullingar Show, with the large entry in show-jumping
continuing an old tradition of excellence.
Of course, there are classes for poultry and a vibrant dog show with horticulture
and cookery well-represented in the indoor section of the Show along with arts,
crafts and photography.
Mullingar Show has a large trade stand area, indoor and outdoor, with stands reflecting
all aspects of country and town life and living - from jodhpurs to jewelery, wellies
to wine, food to fire extinguishers.
As always at Mullingar, there is entertainment for all the family.
