‘Whether you specialise in local produce, artisan crafts, agricultural equipment, food and drink, retail, or services, trade stands are a vital part of the Show and play a key role in creating its vibrant atmosphere.

‘Exhibiting at the Royal Manx Agricultural Show provides businesses with the chance to:

• Increase brand visibility

Tickets for the 2026 Royal Manx Agricultural Show are already on sale, with prices frozen at 2025 rates, ensuring the event remains accessible for families and visitors alike.

In addition, the popular arts and crafts schedule is now available, offering exhibitors and competitors something creative to work on during the cold winter nights ahead.
