The last day of the Royal Cornwall Show, scheduled for Saturday, has been cancelled due to forecasted severe weather conditions, organisers have announced.

Informed by a thorough assessment of potential impacts on the showground, the decision prioritises the safety and wellbeing of all visitors, exhibitors, competitors, staff, volunteers, and contractors.

A yellow weather warning for wind from the Met Office and predictions of heavy rain contribute to the rationale for cancellation.

Acknowledging the disappointment this will cause to those planning to attend, exhibit, or compete, organisers extend gratitude to stakeholders for their patience, understanding, and support during this time.

Further details for ticket holders, exhibitors, competitors, members, and other stakeholders will be shared via the Royal Cornwall Show’s official communication channels.
