It’s showtime at Horsham

Horsham’s annual agricultural show will feature tiny goats, monster trucks and everything in between – from camel rides, wrestling demonstrations, a LevelUp! gaming zone, and all the traditional features showgoers have enjoyed over its 148-year history.

A twilight carnival at 5pm Saturday begins the festivities, with the evening to include camel rides, monster truck rides, sideshow rides, games, showbags and a new food court.

Show organiser Andrea Cross said show festivities would continue from 10am Sunday. 

“There will be many attractions and experiences for showgoers, including the annual competitions of shearing, wool-handling, sheep, miniature goats and yard dog trials,” she said.

“People can delight in the charm of the baby animals in the animal nursery, along with the tiny goats who will be up for cuddles and petting, as well as the opportunity to get up close with exotic reptiles in an interactive experience at the reptile encounters enclosure.

“Competitors and visitors can visit the makers’ pavilion and explore a showcase of beautiful fresh produce and flowers, and craft and artwork entries.”

Demonstrations around the showground throughout the day include cake decorating, roving spinning plates, hula hoops, and giant bubbles, as well as face painting and caricature portraits.

“Stable One has been repurposed to become a play precinct for little people to immerse themselves in free craft activities, while being entertained on stage by local performers. Back by popular demand, MXW Pro Wrestling has an action-packed program with bouts scheduled across the day in the newly renovated poultry shed,” Mrs Cross said.

“In the agricultural playground, the Emergency Services Cup will be held, which is a first for the show. 

“This free play space also includes a maze, a giant sandpit, and mini golf.

“To top off an unforgettable day, the sky will light up with a spectacular fireworks display at 8.30pm.”

Admission is $10 for people aged six years and over on Saturday night and Sunday’s admission is $20 for adults aged 16 and over, $10 for concession and students aged six to 15, and children aged five and under can enter free.
