Royal Geelong Show 2026

The Royal Geelong Show returns to Geelong Showgrounds at 79 Breakwater Road, East Geelong, from Thursday 15 to Sunday 18 October 2026. The A & P Society program includes livestock, rides, showbags, competitions, food and live entertainment. The operator FAQ lists Thursday and Sunday 9:30am–4:00pm (last entry 3:00pm) and Friday–Saturday 9:30am–10:30pm (last entry 8:00pm); the Showgrounds calendar instead ends Sunday at 5:00pm, so treat Sunday close as unverified if it matters for a visit. Early-bird tickets were advertised from 1 September; do not store dollar amounts until the 2026 ticket page is current. FAQ copy still mentioning Thursday 16 October 2025 for free kids entry must not be copied onto 2026.
