You can always tell when the Armidale Show is in town, with trucks hauling side show caravans and rides are seen on our streets heading toward the showgrounds.
Then the Show starts to take shape with rides going up and lining the horizon, cattle and horse floats start to take up residency at the showgrounds and the familiar thoughts of fairy floss and show bags start to flood the mind.
From the livestock displays, riding competitions, pig races and baby animal farm; to the demolition derby, wood chopping comp, battle of the bands and tug-o-war; to sideshow alley, show bags, rides and fireworks; there’s something for everyone in Armidale to enjoy.
I should say that the Show actually does start this Friday (4th of March) so you should definitely mark it in your calendar if you haven’t already, to attend either Friday or Saturday.
You can read more about the finer details of the Armidale Show here in an article I found in the Armidale Express, or you can just rock up on the day and see what takes your fancy!
