Ulster Bank have announced that it will be the principal Balmoral Show sponsor when the show moves to its new home in May at Balmoral Park. The bank will be the only banking sponsor at the show as part of the new deal.
The show, which is the largest of its kind on the island, will take place at the new venue for the first time from 15th to 17th May.
Chief executive of the RUAS, Colin McDonald, says that the agreement with Ulster Bank is a big boost for the show and the agri-food sector.
“Ulster Bank’s support is extremely helpful as we seek to continue to promote Northern Ireland’s agri-food sector, and shows us the confidence that Ulster Bank has in the success of Balmoral Show at its new home. Together with Ulster Bank we look forward to welcoming everyone to the event in May as the Balmoral Show takes this historic step,” he adds.
Ian Jordan, Director, Corporate Banking Division, Ulster Bank, says: “We are delighted to build on the success of our partnership with the RUAS and the Balmoral Show, which is so important to the agri-food sector. The show has gone from strength-to-strength in the last five years and this year will see this important and very exciting move to the new site. We are delighted to be the principal sponsor.”
Ulster Bank has been involved in the Balmoral Show for many years, and became the show’s first ever principal sponsor in 2009.
