At The Royal Highland Show at Ingliston on Saturday, prize-winning cattle, sheep, goats and Heavy Horses took centre stage. The sellout crowds gathered in the grandstand to witness the rare opportunity to see many different breeds at one time.
More than 150 animals took part in the parade across the event’s Main Ring. The Grand Parade takes place once again on the Sunday of the Show at 2.30pm.
Awards were handed out to 15 winners who are leading the way in agricultural innovation. Winners included Graintek UK for their baby portable grain dryer, the smallest mobile dryer in the world and New Holland for their T6 methane power tractor, which offers a more sustainable way of working.
David Tennant, Head of Show, said: “There has been an incredible atmosphere on site today and the Saturday of the Show is always a really special one with The Grand Parade taking place – it’s such a spectacle for visitors to experience. It’s also been a delight to see lots more families at the Show today enjoying Tractor Ted, Mini Rovers and our Countryside Arena.
“The Sunday of the Show will see our Members Village being opened to the public to showcase a whole host of entertainment, from Edinburgh Military Tattoo artists, magician, Elliott Bibby and live music – it looks set to be a superb Sunday!”
