The Sydney Royal Easter Show, also known as the Royal Easter Show or simply The Show, is an annual show held in Sydney, Australia over two weeks around Easter. It is run by the Royal Agricultural Society of New South Wales and was first held in 1823. Queen Victoria, (1837–1901), awarded the society and its show the right to use the word "Royal" in its name.

 

The Show is historically an event where "city meets country" and the rural industries of Australia can be shown and celebrated once a year.

 

The Show comprises an agricultural show, an amusement park and a fair and combines the elements of each, showcasing the judging of livestock and produce. This comprehensive fair has many competitions including arts and crafts, photography and cookery, as well as tests of strength and skill such as wood chopping.

The Show also has shopping, restaurants, commercial stands and exhibits, a horticultural display, a national accredited conformation dog show and cat show, and stage and arena shows.

The Show currently attracts over one million people per year.

 

The Sydney Royal Easter Show is the largest event held in Australia, and the sixth largest in the world.

I'm glad we didn't pay to watch these actors mime to a pre-recorded soundtrack - locals and visitors alike voted with their feet.

I am developing a quiet obsession with the judges at the Easter Show

 

This was my sugar piece inspired by a kitchen tea cake I did, I'm really happy with it, but the standard was very high and if Anna Maria could only manage a highly commended this year with her amazing piece then I can see why this didn't place, but I love it all the same.

Playing "Dixieland Blues" at the Sydney Royal Easter Show. Soloists were Bob and Greg.

Most toys look odd hanging upside down, but not Spidey!

The Easter display at the Lamberton Conservatory has been put in place. It will look at its best in 4 or 5 days. Most of the flowers are still closed up.

 

It does assure us here in cold, cold western NY that there is a spring and it will eventually come here.

Along with dagwood dogs, brightly coloured balloons, farm animals, rides, food samples, cake decorating, art shows, showbags, fairy floss...

 

The Easter Show every year is one of our family traditions.
