Among the events with animals on the show ring, on Thursday, November 28, there will be a judging competition for agricultural schools, a judging course and a shearing demonstration.
On Friday, November 29, the Breeder Show Award will celebrate all breeders who carefully and lovingly prepared their heads of cattle for this appointment.

To conclude the day, participation certificates will be given to breeders registered to this 2024 edition.
Much space is given, as usual, to young generations with the competition called “On the way to Cremona”, an important project for agricultural schools that actively involves students shining the spotlight on them.
A new addition this year is the “Next-Generation Handling Competition,” open to all young Europeans, scheduled for Saturday, November 30. On the same day, the “Meeting Judge Workshop,” a morphological evaluation workshop, will be led by U.S. judges Nathan Thomas and Jenny Thomas, followed by the Breeders’ Party in the livestock ring.
