    The Royal Highland & Agricultural Society of Scotland (RHASS) has announced that livestock and competition entries for this year’s Royal Highland Show are now open.

    Competitors can submit entries for the following categories:

    • Beef Cattle 
    • Dairy Cattle 
    • Sheep 
    • Goats 
    • Heavy Horse 
    • Light Horse 
    • Farriery 
    • Shearing 
    • Fleece 
    • Scottish Honey Championship 
    • Scottish Dairy Products Championship 
    • Scottish Handcrafts Championship 

    The closing date for cattle, sheep, goats, heavy horse, and light horse entries is the 19th April. Shearing and fleece entries close on 30th April, farriery entries close on 3rd May, and all Scottish Championship entries close on 20th May.

    Key changes this year include the addition of a Kerry Hill sheep section, a ladies’ shearing class and the introduction of milk and cream competitions. Also, the International Stairway showjumping class will now take place in the main ring, allowing working hunter to start earlier in the Jubilee Ring. Entries for showjumping will open on the 24th of April.

    An additional sheep ring will be in place to provide greater flexibility for the judging, and a new location has been added for handcrafts.

    David Tennant, head of show for RHASS, said: “Each year as the show continues to grow, we look at how we can improve the experience for the farming community, competitors, and visitors. With the addition of some exciting new sections and classes in place for 2024, we hope to continue to capture the interest of both the showing community and our regular attendees, as well as welcome new audiences to experience all the show has to offer.

    “We wish all entrants taking part the best of luck and look forward to seeing the highest standard of livestock and produce on show.”
