MARY VALLEY SHOW & RODEO

Saturday 13 August

The biggest little country show is back! Saturday 13 August, 2022 – Mary Valley Show and Rodeo at Imbil returns stronger than ever – with super all round rodeo, stud beef, poultry, ring events, chainsaw racing, woodchop, pavilion exhibitors and fireworks.

Plus food choices aplenty, fairy floss, face painting, coffee, bar and entertainment galore for all ages.

There's interesting business trade sites and fun to burn along side show alley.

Or make a pet-stop at the animal nursery or get up close with some native wildlife, with Wildlife Unleashed offering hands-on animal encounters!

The popular entertaining Miss Donna Balloons will be a real buzz for the kids, spreading her colour and joy.

Cuddly furry animal friends will be much loved for the little ones at the Old McDonalds Farm display and riding in the colourful tea cups is what all littlies love.

The super all round rodeo equals more excitement in the rodeo arena with a full rodeo program: bigger prize money, bigger rodeo entries and bigger spectator thrills and spills.

The feature bull ride will have you sitting on the edge of your seat as our competitors ride to win the prize pool and share their passion with you.

Our 7 year old to 15 year old junior bull riders make their entry on the mini bulls. It is rodeo action all day from 9.30am.

The newly renovated pavilion will be overflowing with a fresh new produce section showcasing our valued farmers and gardening enthusiasts.

Orchid display and floral art will once again impress with stunning colour, imagination and creativeness.

School displays capture the great work our local school children have been busily preparing to share with us.

Handicraft excels in our heartland of rural women and men who will showcase their impressive work.

Stud beef pictured top centre, represents our strong cattle industry – did you know that the cattle market has never reached this current market value in the lives of cattle producers? Don’t miss the progeny in beef ring!

Poultry section will once again be the place for the finest of birds and their owners vying for the champion ribbons, pictured bottom right.

Ring events commencing at 8am will be all day entertainment with four rings – horses, galloways, ponies, miniature ponies and small horses. Show jumping is always a favourite.

Chainsaw racing is ramping up the volume and speed to attract you to their unique skills and love of the timber industry. Woodchop is always a crowd pleaser, with raw strength and power in display.

Bobb n Co Working Dogs will be demonstrating four times throughout the day. Bob Pronard from Crossdale, Somerset region, will have his muchloved border collies putting a few Indian Runner ducks through their obstacle courses, pictured top.

Roving entertainment and on stage musicians and local talents will keep you attentive and smiling.

There are the spectacular fireworks at 7.30pm to delight most children and young-at-heart adults alike.

Following is the popular local band – Junction Road Music – pictured centre, who are all set to play until late.
