The Royal Adelaide Show will return in 2024 | 31 August – 8 September

The Show is one of our favourite Adelaide activities on the calendar each year. With heaps to see and do, from the adorable farmyard animals, agriculture shows and events, rides, food, plenty of attractions and of course the fireworks and show bags – there really is something to interest everyone! Let’s not forget the wood chopping?

Captivating both kids and adults, the Royal Adelaide Show has a magical allure that draws families back year after year.

If Showbags are your thing last year there were over 400 show bags on offer (more than ever before) with average prices between $12 and $25 – but options from just $2 that we also love (thank you Bertie Beetle). There really is something for every one.
