The 66th Keighley & District Agricultural Show drew large crowds this weekend as families enjoyed a full programme of farming, food and entertainment.
Visitors were treated to a wide range of livestock classes, equestrian displays, horticultural competitions and craft exhibits, alongside vintage machinery, falconry and family amusements.
Running alongside the main show was the 187th Keighley Horticultural Society event, where crowds admired prize-winning flowers and vegetables – from the heaviest onion to quirky “wonky veg.”
First held in the 1950s, the show has become a regular fixture in Yorkshire’s rural calendar, combining livestock, produce and craft competitions with family attractions.
This year’s event featured the usual mix of farming classes, horticulture, equestrian events and entertainment, continuing its long tradition in the district.
