The event is traditionally aimed at both hobby and large herd alpaca breeders, but again opens its doors to the general public as show organisers respond to the growing popularity of one of Peru’s most beautiful creatures.

Free to attend, the event gives visitors the opportunity to learn more and get up and personal with the many different breeds of alpaca, at Bury Farm Equestrian Centre in Slapton.
