This whole look is very… Cat.
Throwing it back to 1929 when Doris Ceary of Rosemont entered her trio of two-toned kittens at The Royal.
Yes, we once had a cat show. Yes, it was fabulous.

Happy Canada Day from all of us at The Royal! 🇨🇦
At the core of everything we do is a deep pride in Canadian agriculture. From coast to coast, it’s the land, the animals, the people, and the passion that bring us together.

We celebrate that spirit every November through four pillars that define The Royal: education, food, agriculture, and equine sport. Each one proudly reflects who we are as Canadians.

This year’s Fair is shaping up to be our biggest yet. The countdown to is on 🇨🇦

“Can I pull you for a chat… on The Royal Terrace?” 🍷👀

You’ve officially got a text — The Royal’s hospitality scene is a total bombshell. From small plates and big pours on the Royal Terrace during the Royal Horse Show, to exclusive vibes in the Tanbark Club, it’s the place to be if the barn’s feeling a little… too villa. 😉

Swipe right on farm-fresh flavour. 🇨🇦

Our very own Director of The Royal Horse Show and Equine Sport: Christine Reupke! 🏆

The hunter/eq/jumper judge, coach (and Royal Horse Show manager) talks about first impressions, knowing the rules, and over-horsed amateurs.

On Saturday, The Royal joined Don Mills Collegiate Institute for a special afternoon celebrating the powerful connection between agriculture and education.

Guests explored DMCI’s green spaces, met Rosie, the 2025 Royal Ambassador, and and enjoyed a reception prepared by student chefs alongside Chef Michael Bonacini and the Oliver & Bonacini team.

We were honoured to welcome MP Robert Oliphant, TDSB leaders, and members of The Royal’s Board, and we extend a heartfelt thank you to educator Dan Kuanec for championing this event and inspiring the next generation.

This day was a true reflection of what The Royal is all about: curiosity, community, and celebrating the future of food, farming, and four-legged ambassadors.
