The much-loved Whittlesea Show has always been a staple of the community and the 2024 event, to be held on November 2 and 3, will prove once again to be a magnificent day out.
In his first year as Whittlesea Agricultural Society president, and with a team of dedicated volunteers behind him, Jayson Munro has introduced additions to the Whittlesea Show that will impress newcomers and wow those who are returning.
Cluney’s Tavern and Smokehouse area will greet visitors, along with additional rides for all, whilst the new look Education Pavilion will include activities and attractions to entertain both young and adult.
Among the loved pavilions, including heritage, sheep, and the ever-popular animal nursery, there will also be new competitions to enter, including the pygmy goat obstacle course. There will be pull tractors to see, toy tractors to drive, and a range of free attractions including interactive simulators, an all day circus and more.
The 2024 show provides a range of skill demonstrations and opportunities to participate including rope making, butter churning, sour dough making, and cake decorating and free children’s activities such as bag and mask decorating.
Headline entertainer and exciting new star Taylor Moss will keep crowds entertained. This year Taylor performed live shows at the legendary CMA Festival in Nashville.
The many opportunities to enter as a novice or experienced exhibitor will be listed in the show schedule which is available online at www.whittleseashow.org.au or pick one up at the show office, gate 1, McPhees Road, Whittlesea.
Show president Jayson Munro encouraged everyone to put the event on their calendar.
“The Whittlesea Agricultural Society tries to honour both the show’s history and agriculture in the area, contining to introduce both subtle and obvious changes with each year. This year we are pleased to be able to introduce Cluney’s Tavern, where people can relax, as well as more subtle additions including new rides, and demonstrations of skills from the past. As the community continues to support this event we must, in turn, adapt and continually create something to entertain”.
Tickets to the Whittlesea Show are available online at Whittlesea Show 2024 (ticketebo.com.au) or at the gate on November 2 and 3.
Organisers look forward to this year’s Whittlesea Show, the lineup of new attractions, rides, and engaging entertainment promises to elevate the experience for all attendees. Come along for a memorable weekend — this year’s show is not to be missed!
