Marks & Spencer will return to the Royal Highland Show this year unveiling a refreshed exhibition stand and an exciting programme designed to showcase M&S’s enduring commitment to Scottish farming, sustainability, and great quality food production across Scotland.
M&S will sponsor several key beef livestock classes, including Aberdeen Angus. The eye-catching M&S stand—revamped for 2025 with a brand-new look and feel—will once again host a wide range of interactive activities to educate, entertain, and inspire visitors of all ages.
Young visitors will be encouraged to explore the stand and complete a series of fun, hands-on games themed around M&S’s trusted supply chain and Select Farm produce. After completing every stop and collecting all the required stamps in their M&S Royal Highland Passport, children will be rewarded with a special Colin the Caterpillar backpack—a new addition for 2025 following the hugely popular Percy Pig version last year.
The M&S Demonstration Kitchen will also return, with chef Adam Palmer taking centre stage to cook up a delicious range of regional and seasonal dishes using M&S’s best-loved Scottish ingredients. Each day, Adam will be joined by special guests from M&S’s family of local suppliers, who will share the stories behind their produce and hand out samples for visitors to enjoy.
The Farmers’ Lounge will once again play host to the annual M&S Select Farm Awards, recognising outstanding achievements in agricultural excellence, innovation, and sustainability.
Steve McLean, Head of Agriculture & Fisheries at M&S, commented:
“The Royal Highland Show is a fantastic opportunity for M&S to celebrate everything we value about Scotland—its people, its produce, and its passion for quality food. Every year, we work closely with more than 4,000 Scottish farms, sea farms, and fishing vessels and this event allows us to shine a spotlight on the incredible beef, salmon, and fresh produce that form the backbone of so many M&S products.”
“At this year’s show, visitors can discover the stories behind our Scottish suppliers, sample some of their delicious products, and see first-hand how we’re working together to support local farming, sustainability, and innovation. We’re excited to welcome everyone to the M&S stand and to celebrate the best of Scotland.”
