The Royal Highland Show 2026 will be hosted at the Royal Highland Center between the 18th and 21st of June 2026.
Agriculture and farming are a way of life in Scotland, and that is why the Royal Highland Show is such an important trade show for the entire country. After all, each edition generates an impressive turnout. Organisers shared the most recent numbers – over 1 000 international exhibiting firms, 190 000 visitants, 900 competitions and 2 150 livestock competitors. It’s not an exaggeration to say that the exhibition is the engine of the local economy and has a significant monetary impact. The Royal Highland Show takes place every June at the Royal Highland Center, just outside Edinburgh.
The Royal Highland Show is a pivotal event for the Scottish agricultural industry as it is a place where supply and demand meet at all levels from business buyers to end consumers. It’s also a place for rural communities to come together, and farmers to show off their livestock in a variety of animal competitions. The Royal Highland Show offers a rich assortment of products. Such include floriculture, crop protection, forestry, timber products, household wares, outdoor sporting goods, food, beverages, flowers, fertilizers, agrarian machinery/supplies/implements/tools, equine provisions, and produce.

Ben and his colleagues have been of great help. It took us time to finalise our request and Ben kept in touch regularly without "dropping out" which was very helpful. It was sometimes difficult to find the time to focus on the booking for EUROTIER in the middle of short term priorities. Ben was brilliant at keeping me on the ball. Ben and his colleagues made things easy and were always helpful in their feedback and advice. The house found house 7027 was a very good solution. The landlord was really helpful and the house was very comfortable. Thank you very much for your service.
all went perfect and smooth thanks
The service received by Mrs Ellie Stone can only be praised. She is professional, fast handling and 100% engaged in providing prompt and satisfying answers to customer needs and requests. All this in a very pleasant way. As to the hotel I chose, the location was great, the breakfast very nice, the rooms are quiet small, but clean and cozy. Only the bar should be looked at, as there is not much choice, neither in food nor in beverage. All in all a good place to stay during a fair.
Hi Megan,
The Motel One Frankfurt Roemer was good, people appreciated the hotel and its location.
Best regards,

Happy to work with Tess but the hotel was not that good. It was old and loud and the furniture was outdated. The hotel had 5 floors and 4 of them were renovated but we got rooms in the old part. Overall its central and within nice location.
