Bangalow Show
2025-11-14 - 2025-11-15 | Bangalow Showgrounds, Market St, Bangalow, NSW, Australia
Since 1897 when the first Bangalow Show was held, the Bangalow Agricultural and Industrial Society has strived to bring to the community a collection of rural exhibits and a reason for socialising and friendship.
These days the annual Bangalow Show still holds true to its agricultural roots, while also bringing exciting fun for all.
Whether it be the events in the main ring, a look at the cattle or poultry, a gentle stroll through the exhibits in the Pavilion, or being dragged through Sideshow Alley by the kids, there is something for everyone at the Bangalow Show.
For 2 days in November each year the showground resonates with the sounds of cattle, horses and sideshow alley. The pavilions are filled with produce, poultry and everything you could make or bake.
Head along and join them – it’s fun for all the family.
