The Livestock & Equine at the Brecon County Show are one of the highlights for many visitors. This is, after all, a "proper" agricultural show.
People travel from all over the country to have their cattle, sheep, horses, ponies, donkeys and goats compete here, which ensures a high quality and good standard of competition.
The animals themselves are hugely impressive. And to see how well they are cared for and the amount of work that goes into that care is also quite something to behold.

For around six thousand years, sheep shearing and wool production has been an important part of this country's sheep industry.
And you can see just how it's done, at the Brecon County Show. It's fascinating to watch and features some of the best exponents of the art in the county. Knowledgeable commentators will guide you through what is happening, as the action unfolds.

Come and appreciate the cakes, breads, pies, jams, curds and chutneys in the domestic sections or why not have a go yourself and enter a class or two.
The art and craft on display demonstrates the effort, creativity and dedication invested into the range of entries, in some cases long before show day.
This year we do hope we will see more entries from our youngsters across the age ranges in particular from teenagers and we hope parents will point their sons and daughters to the list of entries in the schedule at the beginning of the summer holidays.
