Welcome to Royal Welsh Winter Fair

Celebrate the Festive Season at the Royal Welsh Winter Fair

Each November, Llanelwedd comes alive with festive sparkle as the Royal Welsh Winter Fair returns — one of the most loved events in the agricultural and Christmas calendar.

Renowned as one of the finest prime stock shows in the UK, the Winter Fair combines agricultural excellence with the spirit of the season. Across two days, visitors can enjoy livestock competitions, artisan food and drink, handcrafted gifts, and a truly festive atmosphere. Farmers, producers, and makers from across Wales and beyond come together to celebrate the very best of rural life.

From the Christmas Market to the Food Hall, it’s the perfect place to find local produce, unique gifts, and seasonal inspiration for your festive table. Sample Welsh cheeses, artisan chocolates, and traditional treats, or warm up with mulled wine as you browse.

The fair also features carol singing, live entertainment, and children’s activities, making it a joyful day out for all ages. Whether you’re passionate about farming, love a Christmas market, or simply want to experience the magic of winter in rural Wales, the Royal Welsh Winter Fair offers a warm welcome and a memorable start to the festive season.

Join us in celebrating Welsh traditions, community, and countryside charm at this unmissable event.
