You can see roaming children’s entertainers, or wander to the northern fence to check out the stand alone Contrasts Art Show or watch the showjumping in the sand arena. There’s the dog show, cattle, sheep, poultry, caged birds and much more.
A huge night time entertainment program starting from the kids’ ball drop for the chance for some lucky youngster to win a bicycle from Redbacks Bicycles; the Warwick Hack and Pony Club musical ride, sheep racing, demolition derby, fireworks sponsored by Spanos Supa IGA or dance the evening away with talented Beaudesert singer, Susie Riemers.
Highlight of the evening will be for the first time in Warwick, the Canadian comedy team The International Lumberjack Show .
This is a family show that will have you laughing like possums up pine trees.
Action packed with skills seen by loggers in the early 1900’s, our whacky lumberjacks try to see who is the best out there in the bush in a challenge of various events testing their skills and getting one up on the other lumberjack. See log rolling, chainsaw racing, carving and loads of antics the lumberjacks are ready to entertain.
These guys will have you in stitches with their antics and they have performed at Melbourne, Sydney and Canberra shows and they are ready to wow Warwick.
