The 149th Keith Country show moved to a new format this year, with the event taking place on a Saturday and Sunday, rather than a Sunday and Monday.

Saturday saw the majority of the judging of the livestock, while Sunday remained the 'family day', with a funfair, children's face painting and a performance from The Singing Kettle's Artie all taking place.
