From Wikipedia:
"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."
23.04.2014 - the last day of the 2014 Easter Show - a very large crowd, despite some exhibits starting to close, and be dismantled.

My ongoing obsession
This was my mini cake entry, it didn't win anything and when I got there the colours had taken a significant fade. It's inspired by a recent blog post I saw where I think it was Pinkcakebox doing a full size one and also by the suzyhascakes dress cake!

The other side of the base of the display shown in the stitched-together photo-panorama. Notice the archetypal Show items re-created in flowers; cakes, produce displays, livestock. Part of the ferris wheel is visible at the right.
(Don'tcha love that pointing arm? This time you get to see the child's face, cut off in the Photomerge that made the panorama below.)
