AGRA Conference 10th to 12th September 2027
Royal Agricultural College, Cirencester
AGRA’s forth conference, open to the general public as well as the AGRA membership, will be held at the Royal Agricultural College (RUC), Cirencester. The conference will be held as an inperson event only.
The RUC was the first agricultural college in the English-speaking world. Founded in 1845 through the efforts of the Fairford and Cirencester Farmers' Club, it was granted its Royal Charter by Queen Victoria that same year.
The theme of the conference “Land and Life” will encompass a broad spectrum of topics connecting with researching our Rural Ancestors.
A full programme of events, details of speakers, sponsors and booking arrangements will bemade available as soon as possible.
In the meantime, if you are interesting in putting forward a proposal for a talk, please see our Call for Speakers which can be found here: click here for more details.
The Conference will also be streamed live for those unable to attend in person.
From delegates at our 2019 Conference
“A great way to begin with drinks then a pleasant dinner. Excellent introductory speaker.”
“The organisation, the social aspect, the quality of the talks, and the setting.”
“The chance to meet and mix with varying different types of genealogists.”
“Fantastic speakers and excellent venue. Face to face meetings and spontaneous conversations are important and so the conference delivered the kind of networking which wouldn't happen online.”
