💚 **What makes the Guyra Show so special?**

"Working with a great group of volunteers."

🙌 **Why should people get involved or come to the Show?**

"The Guyra Show provides a wide array of entertainment where the community comes together to meet and socialise over a weekend or several days. It also needs many people to wear many hats to bring the event together and ensure its continued success."

A huge thank you to Dorothy for her years of dedication and commitment to the Guyra Show Society. Volunteers like Dorothy help preserve one of Guyra's most treasured community traditions.

As a part of the 2026 Guyra Show, section coordinators, stewards, members and producers worked with the NSW DPIRD & LLS to streamline and develop new processes to better support future show days to come at the Guyra Show when it comes to the movements of Sheep with eID devices.

Don't forget that from the 1st of January 2027 all Sheep & Goats must have one NLIS Device per animal before leaving a property even when attending agricultural shows.

Kicking off tomorrow we look forward to welcoming you to the first edition of Meet the Team Monday!

Over the coming weeks, we'll be introducing the dedicated volunteers who make the Guyra Show Society possible. First up is our 2026–27 Executive Committee – a passionate group of locals committed to preserving one of Guyra's proudest traditions and ensuring our Show continues to grow for generations to come.

From planning and organising to supporting exhibitors, volunteers, sponsors and our community, there's a lot that happens behind the scenes, and it couldn't happen without these incredible people.

We hope you'll enjoy getting to know the faces behind the Guyra Show and learning a little about the people who help bring our annual Show to life.
