The George Agricultural Show is one of the oldest and most established agricultural exhibitions in the Western Cape, hosted annually at the George Showgrounds in George, South Africa. Organised by the Outeniqua Agricultural Society, the event has a history spanning more than 165 years and serves as a premier showcase of agriculture, livestock, agribusiness, rural innovation, and community development in the Southern Cape.
The show brings together farmers, breeders, agricultural suppliers, local businesses, and the wider public for a multi-day programme that highlights the importance of agriculture to the regional economy. Exhibitions typically feature livestock competitions, horse events, poultry and sheep displays, agricultural machinery, trade exhibitions, educational demonstrations, and industry networking opportunities.
In addition to its agricultural focus, the George Agricultural Show offers a wide range of family-friendly entertainment, including live performances, food stalls, local craft exhibitors, competitions, funfair attractions, and community activities designed to appeal to visitors of all ages.
Recognised as one of the largest agricultural shows in the Southern Cape, the event plays an important role in promoting agricultural excellence, supporting local producers, and strengthening connections between urban and rural communities. It also provides a valuable platform for education, skills development, and economic participation within the agricultural sector.
