Port Elliot Show – Celebrating their 143rd show in 2023.
This traditional agricultural show provides a showcase for rural activity, giving local agriculturalists a chance to meet and exchange views, as well as giving suburban residents a place to learn about local agriculture and have a wonderful family day out.

The Sunday will feature Cool for Kids, Magicians, Celtic Gateway Traditional Music and lots more. Horses in Action will be as popular as ever with a full day of Show Horse and Jumping events. Along with music and dancing there will be something for everyone.
You will find entertainment all around the show grounds including roaming performers and musicians playing for you while you enjoy your day. The Main Entertainment marquee will have a variety of performers along with several local bands over the whole weekend. Also performing this year will be the Encounter Lutheran College Choir.
