First held in 1823 at Parramatta, Sydney’s Royal Easter Show has grown to be the largest event held in Australia and the 6th largest in the world. Due to its growing size it has moved localities twice and is now held at Sydney Olympic Park in a purpose built facility. In 1891 Queen,Victoria bestowed the right for the show to be officially called Royal. Attending the show is fun for all ages and my experience is that you run out of time to see everything not that you are bored with nothing to do. Each year the shows theme is “city meets country” and it can be found in the following  activities:

• Agricultural Show
• Animal Shows
• Art & Crafts Displays
• Community Displays
• Entertainment
• Fireworks
• Grand Parade
• Main Arena
• New Product Displays
• Petting Zoos
• Side Show Alley
• Stages
• Wood Chopping

The following photos are from the show a few years ago as unfortunately I was unable to attend this year do to other commitments.
