Royal Adelaide Show, S.A.

Tremendous show - and wonderful support for pigs! This year's feature breed is the Berkshire. A top opportunity to see our pig breeeds - all rare - at close quarters, and first class examples of the breeds too.
Lots of poultry, sheep, goats, cattle, and horses - in ridden, harness and breed classes. All the attractions of a big show, something for everyone. 

The 2026 competition for pigs will include:

• Expanded Champion categories for Boars and Sows

• Dedicated Junior and Senior Berkshire titles

• Berkshire Supreme Exhibit (Boar or Sow)

• Trio of Berkshire Pigs

Updated Class Structure for 2026

The Pig Competition schedule has been restructured to improve clarity and consistency across all breeds.

Changes for 2026 include:

• Breed-specific class groups for Berkshire, Duroc–Hampshire, Landrace, Large White, and Any Other Pure Breed

• Simplified age categories applied consistently across all stud breeds

• Revised Trio classes for balanced evaluation and breed representation

• Updated Objective Measurement classes aligned with age-based selection (Under 5 months)

• Refreshed Commercial Pig classes for baconers, porkers and school entries.
