Drawing together the much-loved aspects of the Australian Agricultural Show, the Benalla Show continues to provide a wonderful opportunity to create and display skills and passions.
Friday, October 18 sees the doors open on the pavilion displays of textiles and crafts, art, horticulture and vegetables, photography, wool and, of course, the cookery section.
Who will take home the blue ribbon for sponge cake and scones this year?
Over on the Pryde’s Main Arena, the showjumping will be running and there will be more horses out the back on the Arundel St ovals.
There will be plenty of sideshows, as well as the RedLilly mobile farm in the animal nursery, along with free face painting for the kids.
For those into learning about native wildlife, Black Snake Productions will be near the secretary’s office, with a lot more to see than just the slithery critters.
Maybe you would prefer to watch the Show Dogs as two championship shows take place throughout the day with all manner of dog breeds vying for breed championships.
