GALLERY: Plenty of family fun and competitive competition at this year's Ballymoney Show

This year’s Ballymoney Show was once again enjoyed by large crowds as families of all ages descended on the north Antrim venue.

The agricultural event had everything from livestock competitions to a YFC football match – plus everything else in-between.

Those in attendance were treated to a children’s golf-themed fancy dress competition, as well as a performance from the Carrowreagh Primary School choir.

Hailing this year’s event, TUV councillor Allister Kyle said: “The Ballymoney Show has firmly established itself as one of the top provincial shows in the country.

"Thanks to the hard work and enthusiasm of the Young Farmers’ Clubs from Finvoy, Kilraughts and Moycraig, and the generosity of sponsors, the show committee has once again pulled together a fantastic, affordable family event running across Friday evening and Saturday.

“From light-hearted competitions like the Lego building and children’s fancy dress, to the serious business of livestock judging, there is truly something for everyone at Ballymoney.”

Meanwhile, one of the judges in the sheep classes hailed the impact of young people at this year’s event, which you can read below.
