It’s time for Toora Show! October 11, 2025
The countdown is on for the Tooraweenah Show, with the 2025 program promising a full day of entertainment, competition, and community spirit.
Proudly regarded as the “best little show in the west,” the annual event brings together locals and visitors alike to celebrate rural life and showcase the talents of the district.
The program features all the much-loved traditions of a country show. Horse events will take centre stage from early in the morning, with classes for stock horses, hacks, and showjumping.
The pavilion will be brimming with entries across cooking, produce, photography, and crafts, highlighting the skills and creativity of community members young and old.
Sheep and cattle competitions will again attract keen interest, as exhibitors present quality stock that reflects the region’s strong agricultural heritage. Meanwhile, dog trials and working dog demonstrations will draw crowds eager to see finely honed skills in action.
Beyond the competitions, the show offers plenty to keep families entertained. The sideshow alley, rides, and games create a festive atmosphere, while trade stalls and displays provide something for all interests.
Food vendors and the bar will keep the crowds well-fed and refreshed throughout the day.
Children’s activities and novelty events ensure younger visitors are part of the fun, while live music and demonstrations will run across the grounds. The woodchop events are always a crowd favourite, combining athleticism with tradition as competitors swing their axes in timed contests.
The Tooraweenah Show is more than just an event - it is a meeting place for the community. Volunteers from across the district dedicate countless hours to organising and running the program, ensuring the show continues to thrive.
Local businesses, sponsors, and families all contribute, reflecting the cooperative spirit that defines country towns. Each entry in the pavilion or livestock section represents pride in local skills and produce, while every ticket purchased helps sustain the show for future generations. For many, the annual gathering is also a reunion, as old friends and neighbours meet again on the grounds.
With a program that balances tradition and entertainment, the Tooraweenah Show remains a highlight on the regional calendar. Whether you are coming for the competition, the atmosphere, or simply to enjoy a day out in the country, the “best little show in the west” is ready to welcome you.
The gates open early, and visitors are encouraged to plan their day to take in the full range of activities.
Once again, Tooraweenah will prove that big community spirit can be found in even the smallest of towns.
