Excitement is building as the Ingham Show approaches, with organisers encouraging residents to start planning their visit and take advantage of pre-purchased tickets and passes ahead of one of the district's biggest annual events.

From Monday 8th June, the Ingham Show Office began selling Family Passes, two-day Pensioner Passes and pre-sale ride tickets, allowing visitors to organise their show experience before arriving at the gates. Tickets will also be available online through TryBooking in the lead-up to the event.

For exhibitors, entry forms can be found in the back of show schedules and are also available via the Ingham Show website. Completed entries, including colouring competition submissions, can be lodged with the Show Office before the relevant closing dates and judging periods.

Side Show Alley will once again be a major attraction, featuring thrilling rides, carnival games, showbags, fairy floss and the ever-popular Dagwood Dogs. The pavilion will showcase the creativity and talent of the community through displays of cooking, craft, horticulture, photography, art, fruit and vegetables.

Visitors can also enjoy the impressive cane display, highlighting one of the region's most important industries, while children will love the hands-on petting farm and interactive wildlife reptile show.

The Centre Ring will feature a mix of skill and spectacle, including equestrian events, cattle judging and parading, along with the crowd-favourite Sausage Dog Fancy Dress and Derby. Meanwhile, the NQ Tractor Pull will bring plenty of horsepower and excitement as competitors put their machines to the test.

The show will conclude each evening with a spectacular fireworks display, providing a fitting finale to a day of family fun, community spirit and country tradition.
