2024 Competitions

Yard Dog
A yard dog competition is a popular event in rural and agricultural communities where working dogs showcase their skills in herding and managing livestock, typically sheep. These competitions are designed to test a dog's ability to maneuver livestock through a series of obstacles and tasks, simulating the work they would do on a farm.
Yard dog competitions are a highlight at many agricultural shows, including the Queanbeyan Show, showcasing the incredible skill and teamwork between dogs and their handlers.

Pavilion
Pavilions serve as central hubs for visitors to explore a wide range of items, typically representing the best of the region's agricultural, artistic, and culinary talents.
Pavilions are a key part of the agricultural show experience, providing a space where the community can come together to celebrate its achievements, share knowledge, and enjoy the diverse talents of its members.

Young Woman

Mini Goats
Mini goats are a delightful and popular attraction at agricultural shows, drawing in crowds of all ages with their adorable appearance and playful behavior. These small, friendly animals are often featured in various competitions, educational displays, and petting zoos, making them a highlight of the show.
Wood Chop
The wood chop competition is one of the most exciting and traditional events at agricultural shows, drawing in crowds with its display of strength, skill, and precision. It’s a highly competitive and physically demanding sport where participants, often referred to as axemen (and increasingly, axewomen), compete in various chopping events.
Black & Coloured Sheep
Black and colored sheep are a unique and visually striking feature at agricultural shows, often drawing attention for their beautiful and diverse wool. These sheep stand out from the more common white or cream-colored sheep breeds and are prized for both their aesthetic appeal and the quality of their fleece.
