What’s on at the Easter Show Sydney?
The better question is, "What’s not on at the Royal Easter Show?" Choosing where to eat and which showbag to buy alone will take up half your day, and that’s not to mention all the agricultural demonstrations like dog shows, sheep and alpaca shearing, petting zoos, and frog and reptile shows.
For an adrenaline rush, plonk your bum in a stadium seat and settle in for rodeos, motocross, showjumping and woodchopping. There are also interactive exhibitions, roving performers and daily giveaways. Carnival rides include all the classics like the super slide, ferris wheel and carousel, plus some real crazy slingshotting, turbocharged, panoramic action for the ages.
