Clon Show to feature on TV special tonight

Clonakilty Agricultural Show is to feature on the digital TV Out & About show at 9pm tonight on Irish TV, a digital station, broadcast via satellite service providers such as Sky and Freesat.

Now in its 97th year, the recent West Cork show is the special focus of an hour-long programme featuring several competitions and classes, as well as colourful characters from the town and region.

Clon Show president Michael John Calnan said: “We were delighted to facilitate the Irish TV film crew and I know that all the exhibitors, competitors and visitors will enjoy tonight’s programme. It is so important that we showcase all that is good and positive about the agricultural sector and this international TV exposure is certainly a very positive step forward for us.”
