The Ekka is always a fun day. Saw the dog show, the fabulous cakes and art work. Had a ride, got show bags and saw more gorgeous animals. 💯

Ekka was amazing and can't wait for Octoberfest next. Wonderful huge grounds and facilities all around! I wish I could have stayed for the Fireworks and enjoys the entire time! Looking forward to next year 🙂

Went twice this year for ekka and I had so much fun! Me and my friends spent a few hours there trying some of the food, watching people shear sheep’s and getting educated about milk production in Australia. I highly recommend coming to the Ekka it is just a few days a year and it’s totally worth it! Do something different get out of your routine, try new things.
