“It’s good to be back” was the message communicated to the Irish Examiner by patrons attending the 41st Charleville Agricultural Show last weekend.

As thousands of people turned out to enjoy the range of events over the course of Saturday and Sunday at Pike Cross, the organising committee said it was great to be back in action after the show was cancelled in 2020 and 2021 due to Covid-19.
