The Easter Show is Australia’s largest annual event, an iconic showcase of Australian culture, heritage and excellence. It combines innovation, heritage, education and entertainment. Every year The Sydney Royal Easter Show attracts around 900,000 visitors.
The Show aims to recognise achievements in agriculture through the various competitions that it organises and promote awareness of rural industries, issues and lifestyles among city Showgoers. It pays tribute to Australia’s agricultural heritage whilst providing a platform for the future.
The Show is also a dynamic entertainment experience for the whole family. Live music, extreme action performances, entertainment, sideshow, food, rides and shopping are all integral components of the Show.

On the 7 of April my boyfriend, friends of my and me went to the Sydney Royal Easter Show. We travelled to the Olympic Park by car and used a free shuttle bus to get to the showground. It was very busy when we got there. I told my friend that I read, that around 900.000 people are vised the Easter Show every year.
We bought our tickets. It coast us $33 per person.
We decided to start the day with the Xtreme show. It was really great and we all enjoyed it. After the show we decided to go to the rides. I rode the Power Surge which coast me 7 coupons ($7).
My friends children won ed to do the Animal Walk so we went to the corner of Channel 9 Grand Parade street and Orana Parade street where the walk started. We walked to the Domestic Animals (corner Hawkesbury street and Channel 9 Grand Parade street) where the walk ended.
After the walk we rushed to the Kung Fu Panda show. My friends children loved the show and we adults used the time to relaxed a little bit.
It was already 2 pm as we start to become hungry. I eat a yummy fresh corn. after everyone had something to eat we went to see the fashion parade.
After the show we went to the craft corner. We looked around the Arts Pavilion and got a few good ideas for our garden; from the home, garden and lifestyle Pavilion.
We also bought show bags in the show bags hall. I bought a Blinky Bill Bag for $1 for each child.
We finished the day in the Graze Theatre where we saw the Band "Chase the Sun".
It's was late until we arrived home we felt tired but happy. It was a long but good day at the Sydney Royal Easter Show.
