Britain’s Countess of Wessex will pay a visit to the Lincolnshire Show.
The 48-year-old royal – who is married to Prince Edward – is due to attend the 129th annual agricultural event on June 20 as a guest of honour.
Sophie has a keen interest in agriculture and was the Show President of the Royal Bath and West Show in 2010 before becoming Vice Patron in 2011.
She is also Patron of the Association of Show and Agricultural Organisations (ASAO) and is a regular guest at country events.
Jayne Southall, director of the Lincolnshire Agricultural Society, said: ”We are absolutely delighted to announce that Her Royal Highness The Countess of Wessex will be attending the Lincolnshire Show as our guest of honour.
”Her presence will be a great privilege for the show and the county of Lincolnshire.”
The countess will be able to watch livestock and equine competitions, machinery displays and flower shows at the prestigious event, as well as having the opportunity to taste some of the UK’s finest farm produce.
The Lincolnshire Show will take place over two days on Wednesday, June 19 and Thursday, June 20.
