The Inishowen Agricultural Show, which has been running successfully for more than a century and is one of the oldest such shows in Ireland, was held on Saturday, July 19, at the showgrounds in Riversdale, Carndonagh.

Thousands of spectators and competitors were a part of the annual celebration, which featured livestock competitions, home industry exhibitions, arts and crafts, and children’s events.

Highlights included horse carriage driving, local artisan showcases, and a children’s pet show.

The countdown is already on for the 2026 Inishowen Agricultural Show in Carn, when Sheenagh will be hoping that her champion horse can defend its title.
