Catrine show: Images of crowds at East Ayrshire event

Hundreds turned up to the popular date on Saturday (May 4).

The popular show had been a staple in the local calendar until its final show in 2019 before being halted by the pandemic.

After returning in 2022, it has once again proved an extremely popular day for all agricultural enthusiasts.

The day offered entertainment for all ages, with delicacies offered by the likes of The Bakery Box and Woody's Ice Cream, Mauchline Young Farmers were also offering face painting.

Youngsters also had loads of fun on The Mini Fair inflatable fun, as well as a visit from the owls.
