Royal Welsh Winter Fair 2025

Monday 24th and Tuesday 25th November – Royal Welsh Showground, Llanelwedd, Builth Wells

We’re thrilled to be returning as official auctioneers and proud sponsors of the Royal Welsh Winter Fair.

Celebrated as one of Europe’s finest primestock shows, the Royal Welsh Winter Fair welcomes visitors from near and far for two unforgettable days of competitions, festivities, and Christmas cheer.

Alongside an exciting schedule of livestock classes, exhibitions, and displays, the Fair is the perfect place to discover unique, handcrafted, and locally made Christmas gifts. Wander through the bustling Food Hall, where the very best Welsh producers showcase their mouth-watering creations — from artisan cheeses and chocolates to seasonal treats and festive favourites.

Kick off the Christmas season in style with a visit to the Royal Welsh Winter Fair , celebrating the very best of British livestock, rural life, great food, and festive spirit.
