What's Happening in Regina, SK…

One of Canada's largest agricultural events is taking place in Regina right now.

The Canada Western Agribition, a mixture of exhibition and trade show, opened on Monday and welcomes thousands of visitors from all around the world. The event also expects two thousand animals, including, for the first time, Texas longhorns.

Agribition describes itself as "the best beef show on the continent", which blends "agriculture, Indigenous culture, and festive entertainment."

The festivities will continue until Saturday, at Regina's Evraz Place. Some of the more colourful and well-attended events will be the rodeo, a full-contact jousting competition, and a "Fleece and the Furious" event where competitors attempt to herd sheep from within an inflatable soccer ball. Attendees can enjoy refreshments from a variety of cuisines in the food pavilion, which will also feature live cooking demonstrations throughout the week.

For the first time, Agribition will include seminars on photography and mental health. The festival will conclude on Saturday night with the annual ‘Party on the Dirt’ at Brandt Centre.

For many, Agribition will be serious business as they sell and buy farm animals and agricultural products. Contemporary farming can be very professional and high-tech, and many will prepare for the event with brochure printing and packing Business Cards.
