About the Nathalia Show
A proud annual tradition celebrating community, agriculture, and family life in country Victoria.
Nathalia Agricultural Society
The Nathalia Agricultural Society Inc. is the volunteer organisation that plans, organises, and hosts the Nathalia Show each year. Our dedicated committee works year-round to deliver a high-quality, family-friendly event that the whole community can be proud of.
We are passionate about showcasing local agriculture, celebrating community achievement, and preserving the traditions of the country show for future generations. From the youngest entrant in the pet parade to the most experienced competitor in the horse ring — everyone has a place at the Nathalia Show.
The show is held annually on the first Saturday of October at the Nathalia Recreation Reserve.
