Plan your entries, get your tickets, it’s almost Show time in Forbes

Get your tickets, plan your entries, the Forbes Show is less than a month away.

It's all happening on one big and busy day, Saturday September 7, this year from the sashing of our 2024 Forbes Young Woman to the fireworks, the ute barrel racing and fun for the whole family.

Our Show committee has secured some great entertainment for this year's big event.

Wow Encounters reptile display will be open through the day with a range of Australian reptiles, amphibians, arachnids and bugs to keep the crowd entertained.

This year we welcome My Pet Dinosaur for the first time, sure to be a great treat for the kids delivered by Just Dream Productions.

Randy Ryder's Junk Yard Action Show is another new attraction for our show, bringing bike stunts to the centre arena.

Of course, all our family favourites will be there. The animal nursery returns and will be open all day, side alley with the rides and showbags will be in operation and of course there are all the exhibits and entries to admire from the pavilion to the ring where horse events and showjumping will be.

The pet show is from 12.30pm, young entrants in our junior showgirl and master stockman competitions should come in at 11.30am, the ute barrel racing is from 3pm and the fireworks from 8pm.

The grand parade will take place at 2pm with the official opening and naming of our Forbes Young Woman and other awards at 2.30pm.

The Show is so much more fun if you've got entries and it's time to get those organised!

Please note, after careful consideration and consultation with DPI authorities, the Forbes PA&H has made the hard decision to cancel Poultry and Caged Birds at this year's show.
