2023 Autumn Mini-Show & Exhibition!

Make it, Bake it, Grow it, Show it!

Get ready to show Benalla what we missed out on in October!

We figured that if we were going to run the Craft and Cookery state competitions we may as well do it properly!! So this mini-Show features the pavilion sections – with a few changes!

The competition sections are: Garden, Art, Crafts, Cookery, Photography and Textiles

Schedules now available for download (some limited printed copies are around Benalla but please download and share as we kind of blew the schedule budget last year!!)

The 2021 Benalla (Virtual) Spring Show is now LIVE!

Go to the Virtual Show page to browse through the various sections!

CANCELLATION OF THE 2021 BENALLA SPRING SHOW

Due to current regulations it is quite apparent that we will not be able to hold our planned Championship Dog Show and Horse Show on October 15-16 this year.

This is very disappointing, to say the least, for us and for the competitors.

We are looking for alternative dates to reschedule both competitions.

In the meantime we plan to have a Virtual Spring Show that will give everyone the opportunity to be involved! More details in the next few days…

2021 Benalla Spring Show – UPDATE

PRESS RELEASE

The 138th Benalla Spring Show in 2021

The Benalla Spring Show is one of Benalla’s longest running community events, attracting a considerable number of patrons and competitors from all over Victoria and the NSW border region for the annual 2-day program.

Given the uncertainties and challenges presently faced by the local and wider community, the Benalla A & P Society Committee has made the difficult decision to scale back the events at the 2021 Spring Show.

The 2021 Spring Show will go ahead with reduced sections and no public attendance.

On Friday 15th October the 68th Annual Dog Show will be held as an Exhibitor-only event.

The Horse section will take place on Saturday 16th October, also Exhibitor-only. The program will include Show Jumping and most of the regular Hack, Pony Club and Breed classes. Program will be online very soon.

We had a wonderful Pavilion competition schedule organized with a great range of fresh, new classes so we are very disappointed at being unable to run our usual event.  BUT! We are hoping to have some online competitions in October – stay tuned!

For our wonderful sponsors and supporters – we will be in touch shortly with more information.

Open Gymkhana on August 25th

We’re running another Season Starter Gymkhana!
