This year’s show will be held on Wednesday 7th August 2024

The society was established in 1772 making it one of the very oldest on record. Last year marked the beginning of an exciting new era for the Vale show as we moved to Penllyn. Always held on a Wednesday in August, the Vale Show regularly attracts over 20,000 people from all walks of life, from town and from countryside. The Show has grown considerably over the years and is now the largest one day event in the Vale of Glamorgan. Alongside the livestock and horse showing there are more than 200 Trade Stands on the field marketing and selling a huge variety of goods.

A Food Court stands in the centre of the field selling produce, most of which has been grown or made in the Vale, along with a Shopping Mall which allows small traders to exhibit. The Show hosts a large Craft Fair and Horticultural Show along with a Home Produce marquee, Dog Show, Rabbit Show and Countryside Marquee.
