What’s On? Bayside & Beyond
There’s nothing quite like the Royal Melbourne Show. It’s packed with unique entertainment and experiences. A day at the show can be tailored to any particular tastes and ages. Animal, agriculture and horticulture lovers flock to the pavilions, judging competitions and Animal Nursery, while thrill seekers hit the rides and sit on the edge of their seats enjoying hair-raising stunt shows in the main arena. Lovers of fine food and wine can hardly tear themselves away from the gourmet delights of the Grand Pavilion, which brims with wonderful produce, new food products and great ideas. Sample the fare to your heart’s content and be tempted by plenty of take-home goodies. Explore a variety of wonderful arts and crafts – and be prepared for plenty of little surprises around every corner. If visiting with kids, expect to do the rounds of show bags, and be sure to encourage them to explore the kid-friendly workshops and activities on offer for a little time out. There are interactive sports, leisure games, and endless displays and expos to meander through, be inspired by and learn from. The Royal Melbourne Show, Victoria's largest and longest running annual public entertainment event, began as a ploughing competition in Moonee Ponds in 1848. How times have changed. Enjoy the show from September 18th to the 28th at the Melbourne Showgrounds in Epson Road, Ascot Vale. See www.royalshow.com.au and call 1300 656 547 for more information.
