The 2025 edition is filled with show favourites, such as the pavilion, and plenty of activities in sideshow alley.
Staying true to its agricultural roots, there will be cattle, horse, poultry and goat competitions, along with the pet category.
Designed with all ages in mind, a range of family-friendly activities is on the cards.
This includes carnival and night rides, fireworks and pony and camel rides.
There are plenty of competitions for the humans to get involved in, too, including the many pavilion entries, tiny tots and show stars, and the ute field.

Meanwhile, at the pavilion, baked goods, handicrafts and art will be among the items battling for coveted spots at the top.
