Pt Elliot Show

It’s the 144th Port Elliot Show – Saturday 12th 9am-5pm and Sunday 13th October 9am – 4pm!

The Southern Agricultural Society Inc., “Port Elliot Show”, was first held in 1869 and this year will celebrate its 144th show, missing only 11 years since its inception due to floods, fires, two World Wars and Covid. The Show aims to promote the interests of agriculture in the district and provide a platform for residents and other interested parties to display their hobbies and talents.

The two-day event is recognised as the third largest Country Show of the 48 Shows held every year across South Australia, with an attendance in 2023 of 14,000 visitors.

Products and Services required to run the Show are sourced from a wide range of local businesses, while a vast number of volunteers, most of whom are local, are on-site over the show weekend.  The Show is thought to be the largest Private event held on the Southern Fleurieu Peninsula, and is a credit to all involved, while highlighting the wide range of talent of the organisers.
