The 2023 National Ploughing Championships will take place in Ratheniska, Co Laois, the National Ploughing Association has confirmed.
The event will take place from Tuesday 19 to Thursday 21 September.
277,000 people attended the event last month when it took place at the Co Laois site, which has hosted the competition a number of times in recent years.
This year marked the first time the event had taken place since 2019 due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
The site also hosted the World Ploughing Championships this year, which had been set to take place in Russia, but was cancelled when the war in Ukraine began.
Speaking at a prize-giving ceremony in Portlaoise, National Ploughing Associaiton Director Anna May McHugh said they were "delighted" to be staging the event in Co Laois again next year.
"Feedback from landowners, the local community and the wider public has been very positive and all were very enthusiastic to see a return," she said.
"Speaking also with many of the exhibitors and visitors over the three days throughout the event, all were very vocal about their wishes to have it staged again in Ratheniska given how well it worked as a location this year.
"The site has proved popular for several reasons including its central location and surrounding road and rail network," she added.
