FREE ENTRY TO THIS YEAR’S NORCO LISMORE SHOW

Show goers will be given free entry to this year’s three-day Norco North Coast National Lismore Show, Show Society President John Gibson announced today.

“The Show has been the heart of our community for 137 years and we understand that many people are under a lot of financial and emotional pressure,” Mr Gibson said.

“We have all had a very traumatic six months since the natural disaster and we’re still recovering. Our community needs a show where we can just get together with family and friends and forget this year – even if it’s only for a day, or three.

“Obviously the showground has been damaged but we are still hoping to have the usual popular exhibits, agricultural and livestock displays, rides, showbags and a packed entertainment schedule with great food that the community has come to expect at the Lismore Show.”

The Norco Lismore Show returns from Thursday, 20 October to Saturday 22 October after it was cancelled the previous two years due to COVID-19.

Nominations are also now open for the 2022 North Coast National Young Woman and Teen Showgirl Competitions.

“It is not long until October and now is the time to get ready for the return of our regular popular competitions and exhibitions. We already have some great attractions booked including a circus that will perform four times a day and a petting zoo,” Mr Gibson said.

“We are also working on getting a rodeo, Monster Trucks, Woodchop, FMX bikes, a Lego competition for schools, reptiles and the ever popular fireworks.

“At this year’s show will feature a Grand Parade at the official opening recognising the life-saving work of the Tinny Army and emergency services during the February natural disaster.

“It’s Great To Be Back.”
