March 12, 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n

Excitement is building for this weekend’s Murgon Show … the Showgirls and Rural Ambassador have been chosen, and the countdown is now on for a big two-day event which will be topped off by fireworks and a bullride on Saturday night!<\/p>\n

A special presentation dinner for the showgirls was held at Murgon RSL Club recently.<\/p>\n

After judging, the lucky winners were presented with their sashes: Junior Showgirl Addi Smith, Showgirl Gypsy Skilton, Rural Ambassador Tristan Waldock and Mrs Murgon Leah Reimers.<\/p>\n

They’ll all be kept busy over the next few days.<\/p>\n

Show activities will get under way on Friday with prime cattle judging, Young Judges competitions and entertainment into the evening, including dog high jumps (see the Show Program below<\/em>).<\/p>\n

But the main day of the show will be Saturday, where there’ll be all the usual competitions during the day, ie. horses, stud and prime cattle, a dog show, poultry and a Grand Parade about noon.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In sideshow alley, there’ll be dodg’ems, a jumping castle, super slide, laughing clowns, face-painting and a petting zoo for the children.<\/p>\n

At 2:00pm, a Stockman’s Challenge will begin in the main arena.<\/p>\n

But the big event – which always attracts the largest crowd – is the rodeo which will start at 4:00pm and run through until 9:00pm, with a break at 7:00pm for fireworks.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Entry prices (which includes the rodeo) are $15 for adults, $10 for students (ages 10-17) and pensioners, or a family pass for $45 (2 adults, 2 children). Under 10s are free! And if you pay to enter on Friday, you’ll be given a wristband to enter for free on Saturday.<\/p>\n
