It was a sun-soaked, action-packed and buzzing Royal Cornwall Show that smashed the attendance record over three days at Wadebridge with a total of 119,232 people passing through the gates.
The previous highest attendance, set in 2002, was 115,464 - itself a great milestone in the show's 211-year history.
There were record entries in the horse section; cattle numbers equalled their best performance, pig entries reached an all-time high and sheep numbers were close to the all-time record.
A spectacular main ring programme included the Royal Artillery's Flying Gunners Motorcycle Display Team, the Central Band of the Royal Air Force, the RAF Falcons Parachute Display Team, Joseph's Amazing Camels, Coors Dray, the RAF St Mawgan Police Dog Display Team and Cury Foxhounds.
A new main entrance, designed and constructed entirely by showground staff, was built in the months leading up to the show. The new timber-built structure is an impressive design which enhances the whole look of the showground.
