Royal Events

Royal Events were introduced in 2001.  A Royal Event allows A&P Associations to promote and feature a specific section at their Show.  In some circumstances two sections may be allowed.  The RAS Supreme Champion Medal and red, white and blue ribbon is awarded to Supreme Champions in these sections.  In 2018 RAS Champion Medals and ribbons were also introduced.
