This year’s Kingaroy Show show will feature all the usual fun of the fair plus a huge Saturday evening of entertainment.
It’s the only South Burnett show that runs for three days, although Friday is restricted to Pavilion judging and a dog show.
The main days are Saturday and Sunday.
The first 1000 children through the gates on Saturday morning will receive a free show bag.
(This is a result of a year-long fundraising campaign by South Burnett Show Society members, collecting used car batteries for recycling.)
Highlights on Saturday will include freestyle motocross shows in the main arena, the Grand Parade at 1:30pm, chainsaws and woodchopping.
There’ll also be all the usual beef and dairy cattle competitions.
On Saturday evening, South Burnett Musical Comedy Society members will present a selection of songs from their upcoming performance of Les Miserables in the main arena from 7:00pm.
This will be followed by fireworks at 7:30pm.
On Sunday, the equestrian events will take over the main ring for most of the day, including showjumping and mini-horses.
All the other show attractions will also be in action, including sideshow alley, trade and pavilion displays.

Kingaroy showgoers will have the opportunity to watch the 2018 Queensland Wingless Sprints title be decided as part of the cost of entry ticket.
The annual Show Speedway meeting will get underway on Sunday evening at 5:00pm.
As well as the Wingless Sprints, there will also be Junior Sedans, Super Sedans, National 4s and Modlites in action on the showground tract.
