Agribition was to celebrate its 50th year in 2020; it was scheduled to be delayed slightly in order to accommodate the 108th Grey Cup, which was to be hosted by nearby Mosaic Stadium.

Organizers cited COVID-19 protocols (including Saskatchewan's proof of vaccination rules), a lack of school visitors, and reduced international attendance as factors in the decline, but noted that there was increased interest in its online content.

[4][5] Agribition is primarily driven by a wide range of livestock shows, cattle sales, agricultural trade displays and business conferences but other events like rodeo, freestyle bullfighting, and horse pulling also fill in Agribition's daily schedule every year.

[6] Livestock prominently featured at the show include various breeds of cattle such as Simmentals, Red Angus, and Maine-Anjou.

[7] Other specialty livestock also participate in Agribition like bison, alpacas and sheep,[8] but on a much smaller scale compared to cattle.
