22.01.2022 CONGRATULATIONS Mt Pleasant Show!! The show has been successful in its application for funding to build a new, accessible administration building with suitable ...space and access for use by community groups at Talunga Park. This funding is being delivered through the Federal Government's Regional Agricultural Show Development Grants program (AgShows). Council has provided in-principle support for this project (which is part of The Big Project) and I can't wait to see these well-overdue improvements go ahead! Massive congratulations to the show committee on this result! All of the grant recipients can be found here: https://www.agriculture.gov.au/ag-/infrastructure/ag-shows

11.01.2022 After extensive consideration, it is with much sadness that the Society is obliged to cancel the 2020 Royal Adelaide Show. Due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pan...demic, and the current restrictions in place for public gatherings, along with the uncertainty of any timeline around lifting restrictions, it makes it unworkable to hold a large event such as the Show in 2020. The decision not to go ahead with the 2020 Royal Adelaide Show has not been taken lightly. It is deeply disappointing to reach this decision; however, it has been carefully evaluated and considered. It is felt the position the Society has taken is in the best interest of public health and the broader community. The Society will now turn its attention to planning and presenting a fantastic Spring Show in 2021.
11.01.2022 Merry Christmas We hope you all have a happy and safe holiday! From the Mt Pleasant Show Committee
