This year marks the 100th edition of the Royal Welsh Show, which was hailed the biggest agricultural show in the UK. 

However, due to by-elections taking place today for Brecon and Radnorshire, this year’s effort is smaller than other years. 

The four-day-long show is organised by the Royal Welsh Agricultural Society, which was formed in 1904. 

The show is credited with boosting tourism in Wales, bringing on average 200,000 visitors a year.
