Scottish Rural Calendar 2022

This year, having missed out on two years of county shows, the promise of in-person social interaction is long overdue.

Agricultural shows are especially important platforms to business owners, responsible for much of the coming year’s successful trading. They provide a sympathetic atmosphere and relevant all-in-one shop window to those trying or selling new products, discovering or promoting new concepts, and spotting or setting the latest trends.

Can your organisation afford not to have a slice of that cake?

Our FREE Rural Communications Toolkit may be useful in making sure that you have the foundations of a strong PR and marketing strategy in place.

We have put together a list of shows scheduled to take place in Scotland this year (correct at time of writing, but please check with organisers).

‍We'd love to know of any other events to include in future updates.
