Tradition, thrills and family friendly fun

A celebration of country spirit and community pride returns to the Woodford Showgrounds on Friday, June 20, and Saturday, June 21, as the much-loved Woodford Show brings together tradition and entertainment for all.

The two-day event promises a lively blend of classic agricultural competitions, crowd favourites and exciting new additions. From heavy horse displays and cattle judging to the woodchop, poultry and pavilion exhibits, the Show continues to honour its rural roots.

Families will love the free kids’ zone, complete with a rock wall, activity stations, and appearances from beloved characters like Humphrey B. Bear.

New attractions this year include the thrilling hot saw display and baking competitions featuring Anzac biscuits and sourdough.

Saturday night is set to dazzle with fireworks, barrel racing and the Rooftop Express Show – an unmissable spectacle of Australiana comedy, horsemanship and daring stunts designed to entertain the entire family.

Other attractions include wildlife displays, a blacksmith demonstration, the ever-popular dog jump and the bustling sideshow alley.

Organisers say the goal is to run an event everyone can afford, with Friday entry at $10 for adults, $5 for pensioners and students, and free for kids under 10. Saturday tickets are $15 for adults and $10 for concession, with under-10s still free.

“We’re excited to provide a fun-filled community event for the local surrounding areas while keeping with the traditions of the local country show,” Show organisers said.

The 2025 Show will be held at the Woodford Showgrounds, 38 Nerum Road, Woodford. Full details at www.woodfordshow.com.
