For 11 unforgettable days from Thursday, 25 September to Sunday, 5 October, the Melbourne Showgrounds transforms into a playground of joy, discovery and shared experience, with hundreds of free things to see, do and discover with family and friends.
Nowhere else can you lock eyes with a 1000kg bull, take a flavour-packed journey through gourmet offerings and Show favourites, soak up the energy of the carnival, browse over 400 varieties of showbags with everything from sweet treats to pop culture collectibles, and end your day with fireworks choreographed to music in the night sky.
Each day at the Melbourne Royal Show, thousands of animals and hundreds of competitors bring the action to life across livestock, horses, dogs, alpacas, poultry and more, while hands-on farming experiences like cow milking, sheep shearing and the Sunrise Animal Nursery create unforgettable memories for all ages.
