Get ready for an action-packed weekend as the Penrith Showground bursts to life on Saturday, August 30 and Sunday, August 31!
This year’s Penrith Show line-up is bigger and better than ever, with something to thrill every member of the family.
Hold your breath as Gravity FMX perform their jaw-dropping, death-defying stunts. Be dazzled by the Cowgirls with Wings and their high-energy riding displays. Head to Kiddie Korner and meet the cutest residents at Old MacDonald’s Animal Nursery, and cheer on the piggie racing.
As the sun sets on Saturday night, sing along with award-winning country star Christie Lamb live on stage before the skies light up with a spectacular fireworks display, adding the perfect finishing touch to a day of excitement.
The showgrounds will be buzzing all weekend with rides, live entertainment, and one of the largest School Agriculture displays in NSW. Keep an eye out for the towering giant roaming Transformer Bumblebee, ready for photos and fun with visitors. Or have a crack at whip cracking with whip cracker Brad.
Plus, there’s plenty of action in the ring with the Ute competition & woodchop events.
Equestrian lovers will be spoilt for choice with horse events running across the weekend, alongside arts, crafts, cooking and photography competition displays on Level 1 and Level 2 showcasing the incredible talent and creativity of our local community.
Then, on Sunday afternoon, get your adrenaline pumping for the Demolition Derby, where cars collide in a high-energy battle that’s always a crowd favourite.
With so much to see and do, the Penrith Show promises two unforgettable days of fun, thrills, and family memories. Mark your calendar – you won’t want to miss it!
