AgShows NSW

AgShows NSW AgShows NSW supports 192 member Show Societies in the State of NSW. Our mission is simple: to support and strengthen Agricultural Shows across NSW. Community.

Since 1929, AgShows NSW (formerly the Agricultural Societies Council of NSW) has been the proud peak body representing over 190 Agricultural Show Societies across New South Wales. We champion the people and traditions that bring shows to lifeβ€”supporting volunteers, promoting excellence in agriculture, and celebrating the vital role shows play in our communities. From livestock competitions and edu

cational programs to innovation grants and insurance support, we work hand-in-hand with Show Societies to help them thrive. Whether it's developing the next generation through Young Judges and the RAS AgShows NSW Young Woman Program, or advocating for better funding, fairer regulations, and rural resilience, we’re here to serve. Led by a dedicated Board of regional Directors, we provide guidance, resources, and a strong voice for our membersβ€”ensuring the future of Agricultural Shows is bright, connected, and community-driven.

πŸŽͺ Agriculture. Celebration. That’s the heart of every Showβ€”and it’s the heart of AgShows NSW. Learn more or get involved: www.agshowsnsw.org.au
