A haven for the farming community but also a great event for locals and urbanites with a passion for the great outdoors.
With up to 100 acres of exhibitor displays, both indoors and out, you’ll find equipment, farm machinery, clothing, sheds, outdoor living including boats, caravans, horse floats, and vehicles, technology, plants plus masses of must-have tools. And it wouldn’t be Farm World without a huge variety of animals. You can chat with the cattle breeders in "Cattle Corner" and check out the different breeds, watch the kelpie dogs round up sheep, or learn to walk an alpaca.
Returning in 2021 will be the Telstra Women in Ag lunch, a signature event and highlight for many, and Farm World’s Fittest Farmer, where contestants will battle it out for the ultimate farm/fitness crown.
On Saturday and Sunday only, the Events Centre will come alive with Farm World Market Place. A great opportunity to bring your basket and stock up with loads of homemade, homegrown goodies, and with live cooking demonstrations on the main stage in the String + Salt Demonstration Kitchen next door, this will be a must-see attraction during Farm World 2021.
Farm World boasts a huge variety of unique and memorable experiences and value for all visitors including cattle dogs, pony and camel rides, live music, food + drink, demonstrations and presentations, and so much more! Great fun and entertainment for all the family, and after having to cancel this year’s event due to COVID-19, we can’t wait for Farm World 2021!
