Royal Canberra Show

Royal Canberra Show

The Royal Canberra Show is an agricultural show that has been staged annually in Canberra since 1927 by the Royal National Capital Agricultural Society. The show has agriculture at its core, however it is moving into new fields every year, with the addition of rides, competitions and educational facilities. This is the place where it is said that "city meets country" and "country meets city".

Each year, more and more people are entering their livestock and other agricultural goods into the various competitions. This reflects the important role that the Show plays in attracting people from all over the surrounding area into Canberra for the event.
