Bonniconlon Show takes place in the beautiful village of Bonniconlon, Co. Mayo and boasts a prize fund of up to €65,000.
This Year’s show will be opened by Minister Dara Calleary TD, Minister for Rural and Community Development and the Gaeltacht.
Based in North Mayo, Bonniconlon is a quintessential rural village on the outskirts of Ballina - a hospitable locality which opens its doors to over 30,000 people each year for the one-day show event. Famed for the Bank Holiday showcase, members of each annual show committee have worked tirelessly to develop and expand its award winning events.
There is a jam-packed programme and it prides itself on offering something of interest to young and old.
Our show is more than just an exhibition of live-stock, farm produce, flowers, cookery, trade stands and Horse jumping - it is a family orientated event which coincides with the August holiday period to bring exiles back together, and in doing so, has become a calendar staple throughout the West of Ireland and beyond.
