The round of local agricultural shows for 2015 kicks off on February 21 with the 66th annual Cooyar Show.<\/p>\n

Organisers say they have a few new events planned for this year’s show, including a mini horse derby, mutton busting, poddy rides and demolition derby cars.<\/p>\n

All the regular popular attractions will also be taking place, including chainsaw racing, a stud cattle competition, equestrian events, ute muster and pavilion displays.<\/p>\n

A licensed bar will be running all day.<\/p>\n

The grand parade and official opening will be held from about 12:15pm.<\/p>\n

Cost to enter the show is $20 for adults and $5 for high school students. Children under 12 are free.<\/p>\n

In sideshow alley, a special “budget package” of five rides for $5 will be available.<\/p>\n

The evening will be capped off by the traditional bull ride and fireworks display.<\/p>\n
