Fane Valley Extends Armagh County Show Sponsorship

2nd June 2026

Trevor Lockhart, CEO Fane Valley Co-Operative Society with Ben Lamb, Armagh Show Chairman and Watson Black, Armagh Show Vice-Chairman.

Fane Valley Co-Operative Society is delighted to announce the extension of its headline sponsorship of Armagh County Show until 2029.

This renewed partnership reflects a shared commitment to supporting agriculture, rural communities and the continued success of one of Northern Irelands premier farming events.

The Armagh County Show is a vital showcase for the very best of our farming industry and rural life and it aligns closely with Fane Valley’s purpose of supporting farmers and the local agricultural community. Fane Valley looks forward to continuing to build on this relationship over the next three years with Armagh County Show.

Commenting on the announcement, Fane Valley Group Chief Executive Trevor Lockhart said:

“Fane Valley is proud to extend our longstanding partnership with Armagh County Show for a further three years. The Show is going from strength to strength and remains a key date in the local calendar and great credit is due to the organisers and volunteers whose dedication continues to enhance it year after year as one of Northern Ireland’s premier agricultural events. At Fane Valley, we are appreciative of the ongoing support we receive from our local communities and we are proud to recognise that support by contributing, in some small way, to the continued success of the Show through our Headline Sponsorship.”

Armagh County Show Chairman, Ben Lamb, commented:

“We are incredibly proud to continue our partnership with Fane Valley. Their ongoing support is instrumental in enabling us to deliver a high-quality event that celebrates agriculture, showcases local talent and brings the community together. This three-year commitment provides both stability and momentum as we continue to grow our Show. Support from sponsors like Fane Valley is vital to our success – quite simply, without them, there would be no Armagh County Show.”

Fane Valley is excited about the future of this partnership and looks forward to continuing its support for an event that celebrates the strength, innovation and resilience of the agricultural community. The Society extends its best wishes to everyone involved in delivering another successful and enjoyable Armagh County Show.
