Gore A&P Show – Waitangi Weekend 2026

Gore Showgrounds

Looking for something fun to do over Waitangi Weekend? Make a trip to Gore and spend the day at the A&P Show. It’s the perfect excuse to catch up with friends, let the kids run wild, and soak up everything we love about rural life.

There’s something for everyone – animals, entertainment, fair rides, food stalls, and plenty of country charm. Whether you're a local or planning a summer roadie, it’s a great way to enjoy a day in the south.

And why not make a week of it? Southern Field Days kicks off just a few days later from the 11th–13th of February in Waimumu. It’s shaping up to be a full week of all things rural right here in the region.

Follow along here for show updates, what’s on, and everything you need to know.
