Waikato A&P Show

 

ANIMALS ONLY FOR 2020

The decision has been made that the Waikato A&P Show will look a bit different this year – sadly the show will not be open for the public to attend but instead we will be running a few events for competitors to still be a part of the show! The Show will be following Government H&S regulations ensuring there are less than 100 people within competition zones.

This year will see competitors for Equestrian, Beef, Dairy, Sheep, and Sheep Dog.

 

What's on Offer

The A&P Show hosts a range of animal showing and judging, trade, craft and food stalls, and a variety of entertainment ranging from classic woodchopping to traditional Highland and Irish dance groups and modern entertainers. The 2018 Show featured performances from Craig Smith, the creator of the Wonky Donkey book and other popular children’s series.
