The Grand Parade at the Sydney Royal Easter Show

This iconic event has been taking place at the Show since 1907. Show goers watch as the best of the best in Australian agriculture make their way around Spotless Stadium in a spectacular procession.

The Grand Parade is an opportunity to pay silent homage to Sydney Royal Competition winners including animals, producers, champion woodchoppers, and future community leaders in a celebration of Australian agriculture. Why silent? The four-legged participants are more used to the serene peace and quiet of life on the farm, so give them a friendly wave and hold the applause until after they have left the stadium!

The Sydney Royal Easter Show Grand Parade is believed to be the first of its kind in the world and has been copied by every major agricultural show in Australia. The Grand Parade is the defining moment of the Australian agricultural show. One Grand parade has already be held, with another one today and one on Good Friday.
