Much more than a day at the races, the weekend is an indulgence of spectacular scenery, art, crafts, novelty events, children’s entertainment, live bands and delicious country style food. It is a family orientated event, with activities and entertainment for all ages. Held over the first weekend in October, the iconic regional event attracts approximately 4000 punters from across the country!

Austravel went last year and thoes attending had fun.   Horse racing is not what it is really about.

Bush poetry and camping go together and there are a number of events around that Austravel memebrs could attend.

A group from Austravel could attend and enjoy.   (WA Bush poetry events).  (Other states Bush poetry events)
