The news was confirmed at the NPC's prizegiving ceremony in Tullamore last night.

The National Ploughing Championships will return to County Offaly next year.

Screggan will play host for a second consecutive year, and for the fifth time in the event's history.

225,500 people attended this year's event upon its return to Offaly.

The 95th edition will take place from the 15th to the 17th of September 2026.

Assistant Managing Director of the National Ploughing Association, Anna Marie McHugh says the site outside Tullamore is the ideal venue.

She adds a new venue for 2027 will be revealed later this year:
