Following the announcement last June that Canada’s Farm Progress Show would change its dates for 2020, organizers have now announced a new name.

The show, held in Regina for 42 years, is now Canada’s Farm Show.

It is moving indoors at Evraz Place and one ticket will provide three-day admission.

The show will hold a Speaker Series, new product launches and Alpha Bull Rodeo.

It will be held June 16 – 18.

Regina Exhibition Association Ltd. chief executive officer Tim Reid said an advisory committee has been working with staff to build a new show direction.

“With the increase of global food demand on the horizon, now is the time for Canada’s Farm Show to redefine the show’s value proposition for the future,” he said.

“Farming is adapting and changing; farm shows need to do the same.”
