Next year's National Ploughing Championships will take place in Ratheniska, Co Laois.

The 93rd championships will run from 17-19 September 2024, organisers announced.

National Ploughing Association Managing Director Anna May McHugh said: "It worked well as a location this year despite the inclement weather conditions.

"The site has proved popular for several reasons including its location in the middle of Ireland."
