BREAKING NEWS: SUSTAINABELLINGEN SHOWCASE MOVED TO BELLLINGEN MEMORIAL HALL, 24 & 25 MAY - MORE DETAILS SOON
The Bellinger River Agricultural Society regretfully announces the cancellation of the 2025 Bellingen Show due to unsafe ground conditions at the Showground.
Following extensive rainfall and with more predicted, the Showground has become extremely waterlogged, creating hazardous conditions that would put our volunteers, exhibitors, animals, and visitors at risk.
This difficult decision prioritises safety above all else. We understand the disappointment this causes and share in that sentiment.
All ticket purchasers will receive automatic refunds. The EJ Mantova Art Prize exhibition at Bellingen Gallery & Framing Studio continues as planned. We'll contact sponsors, vendors, and competitors directly in the coming days.
We sincerely thank our community, sponsors, and volunteers for their understanding and support. We're already looking forward to a spectacular comeback in 2026.
