Bring the family and line the streets as we celebrate the official opening of the Ekka, with Ekka's Opening Day Street Parade. It's your chance to get up close to all your favourite acts and attractions as we officially open the gates.
Here’s a sneak peek at what’s rolling through the streets:
🐴 Animals galore – horses, ponies, chickens, reptiles (and one very large bull!)
🔥 Crowd-favourite performers like Hot Wheels, Aussie FMX, Flair Riders and Circus Firemen, marching bands, dance groups and… the Smurfs!
👑 Competition entrants including Miss Showgirl and the legendary woodchoppers
🐮 Ekka’s Farmyard Friends
🍓 And yes, a giant strawberry sundae inflatable to top it all off!
All before the gates even open! Now that’s how you start the Show! 🙌
Mark your calendars and don’t miss this unforgettable Ekka moment.
