The Show also hosts a massive collection of amusement rides and side show alley. You'll also find a huge range of local produce, shopping trade and community stalls.

While it’s what many people think about when they hear it’s show time, it’s not all about fairy floss and ferris wheel rides. The focus of Agricultural Shows including the Hawkesbury Show is to highlight the district’s agricultural heritage and showcase the agricultural excellence of the area bringing local produce and livestock of the highest quality together for the view of all through the means of competitions and events.

The showground pavilions host multiple competitive show sections which include agriculture, fruits, apiculture (beekeeping), horticulture, cooking, preserves, art, photography, crafts, lego, livestock shows (sheep and wool, cattle donkeys, birds mice, rats, dogs and poultry). The competitions in here are friendly yet fierce and awards are sought after by competitors from all around the state. Anyone young, old, local, out of town, town folk or those ‘out bush’ everyone is invited to enter the applicable categories. All sections across the show need to be pre entered.

So be part of the show and enter this year! Maybe it’s that you think you have the best back yard chook (yes that is a category!) or you want to prove you actually do make the best ANZAC biscuits, grow the best flowers fruits or veggies, or be acknowledged for your art, photography or craft skill. There is no feeling like seeing a place ribbon or even better a champion ribbon on your own entry. Children (and adults) light up when they are part of the show – taking their families and friends to see their entry and check if they got a place or award.
