We are extremely grateful to Tirlan, and their Chairman John Murphy for their continued support.

POSTPONEMENT UPDATE
UPDATE - we are presently trying to secure an alternative date for our Show, and are in communication with The Irish Shows Association, our Landowners and Suppliers. July is a busy month for shows in this area and we are looking towards the end of July now. We are still hopeful of running and will issue an update as soon as a date is confirmed. We would ask that all competitors and trade stand applicants bear with us in the interim.
SHOW POSTPONEMENT
Following yesterdays decision to postpone Gorey Agricultural Show are liasing with The Irish Shows Association in an effort to secure a new date. We are hopeful that we will have positive news. We are conscious that we were to hold various qualifiers, we hope to be able to run these, and if not they will be redistributed to other shows. In the event of the date not suiting or indeed falling victim to the terrible weather again we will start the refund process. Gorey Show Committee are massively dissapointed that we had to postpone, as such an amount of work and organisation goes into all agricultural shows, but unfortunately the weather was the dictator in this case. Our advice to exhibitors at the moment is to be patient and wait for the Good News!
