The Norfolk Showground & Events Centre is the premier events venue in East Anglia for large scale events, corporate functions, conferences, sporting events and more!
Our prime location and host of facilities including our 150 acre site and 3000 sqm indoor arena also make us a nationally recognised venue for events from concerts to conferences.
The RNAA is one of the oldest county associations, being founded in 1847 by the amalgamation of the East Norfolk and West Norfolk Associations.
In 1908 the Association was granted the great privilege of the Royal prefix by King Edward VII. For over 100 years shows were held in a variety of locations throughout the county with the co-operation and support of landowners with parkland sites.
In 1952 the RNAA made its initial purchase of land at Costessey for a permanent showground, the first show appeared on the current site in 1954. Over the last sixty years the showground has been expanded and improved with the addition of indoor venues, including the state of the art Showground Arena and the MacGregor Building suite of meeting rooms.
