Royal Melbourne Show


The Royal Melbourne Show is held every September over 11 days. Put on by the Royal Agricultural Society of Victoria, it is billed as when country comes to the city. It is similar to the State Fairs in the US.

Animals

At the show aniamls from Rural Australia are on show, as well as domestic favourites cats and dogs.

Amusement Rides and Sideshow Alley

Seeing the aniamls is all well and good, but for most kids the main atraction is the rides.

Showbags

A big tradition of any Australian Show is the Showbag. Most of the showbags are from the chocolate and lolly companies, as well as toy themed ones. My pick of the show is this David Hasselhoff themed showbag.
