The team is focussed on providing an event where there is something for everyone, with a varitety of highlighted competitions, enter for chance to glory in the prestige associated with winning the top agricultural prizes, and displaying the best of the best livestock to the thousands who attend each day.
We know the shearing competitions will be fast and furious and world class equestrians will be present and riding on the Main Arena. Dogs, alpacas, sheep, poultry and home industries will also be represented in force across the Show. The AFFCO Best of the Bay and Export Lamb competitions are back again this year.
