Busy schedule of sports

The sports events at the core of the National Ploughing Championships have developed and expanded in recent years — working hard to compete for attention with the soaring interest in the ever more impressive exhibitors and excellent social events.

A selection of the main social events are listed on page 15 of this supplement, followed by the full list of more than 1,300 exhibitors. We’ve also reprinted the road access and parking map, which appears on p2, along with Garda advice on designated routes.

Heathpark will feature a wide array of music at various times throughout the Championships. Some readers may find this four-page package to be a useful guide to navigating their way through Heathpark.
