Equestrian events will be in the ring from 8:30am and\u00a0the Burnett Birdkeepers will have displays of colourful parrots and other birds on both days.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dad will enjoy the ute show (10:00am Saturday) and vintage tractors\u00a0and V8 tractor pulls by members of the Kingaroy and District Vintage Machinery Association (6:00pm Saturday and 9:00am Sunday).<\/p>\n

And then there’s the speedway which is loads of fun for the whole family. Racing starts at 5:00pm on Sunday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The 50th anniversary race meeting – the Kingaroy Speedway Club’s last meeting for the season – will feature Late Models,\u00a0Modified Sedans,\u00a0Street Stocks,\u00a0Production Sedans and Juniors.<\/p>\n
