The Kerrygold Dublin Horse Show in the RDS will run from Wednesday, August 6th, to Sunday 10th, the Royal Dublin Society announced yesterday. The society said that following the success of last year's Sunday opening the RDS is again offering free admission to children under 16 who are accompanied by two adults. A special family ticket will cost £12.
It also confirmed that 40,000 Irish dairy farmers have been offered half-price admission tickets to the show, which will feature seven top showjumping teams including the 1996 Olympic gold medallists, Germany.
