Honey Show 2025

What happens at a Honey Show?

Honey shows are a great way to meet beekeepers and learn more about bees and beekeeping.  Beekeepers and other entrants make their submissions to the Honey Show competitions on the morning of the event.  There are different types and classes of honey, honey cakes, mead, artwork and much more.  Once all the submissions are in, judging commences.  We welcome everyone - beekeeper or not- to the competitions. See the section below for more details of how to enter.

While the judging is happening we will host beekeeping talks and demonstrations in the Main Hall.  For novices and those getting into beekeeping there are experienced beekeepers on hand to quiz.  And if you are already a beekeeper, there are talks on more advanced subjects to increase your beekeeping knowledge.

Remember - you don't have to be a beekeeper to come along, or take part in our competitions.  Honey Show 2025 - Sunday 16th March 2025 CPI Centre Knockrawer, Castlefinn, Co. Donegal,  F93 T254
