The story

Ordino Livestock Fair in Ordino

The Ordino Livestock Fair brings sheep, cattle and horses onto the Plana dels Camps show ground each spring, anchored by the national contest and auction of Andorra's own brown cattle breed, while Ordino's old centre hosts an artisan and agri-food market. A young but genuinely working agricultural fair, it opens a side of Andorra most visitors never see.

Cattle judging on a mountain meadow is still the core of the Ordino Livestock Fair, a spring event where the animals are the programme rather than the backdrop.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

The national contest and public auction of the Andorran brown breed is the fair's singular feature — this is the country's own cattle line judged and sold in front of a crowd, not a petting-zoo display

02

The mystery stays covered

The two-stage layout is also distinctive: a real show ground of penned and paraded livestock at Plana dels Camps, paired with a producers' market woven through Ordino's stone old town

03

The city starts moving

Exhibitions on transhumance tie the weekend to the herding history that built these valleys
