Perth Show

Friday 6 August – Saturday 7 August 2027
South Inch, Perth, Perth and Kinross

Perth Show calls its setting unique: while other Scottish agricultural shows go out to farmers' fields, this one comes into the city, to the South Inch, its home almost every year for more than a century. Perthshire Agricultural Society's volunteers run it over two days: Friday belongs to the light horses, with horses and ponies from far and wide, and on Saturday the cattle, sheep, heavy horses, goats and donkeys take their turn. Expect Clydesdales, Highland cows and show jumping, a craft marquee, trade stands, local and celebrity chefs cooking in the cookery theatre, a food hall, Perthshire on a Plate and vintage tractors. There's a dog show, a pet show and races for children, and Perth station is within walking distance.
