Canowindra’s Show Ball success

The weather might have been chilly but the fire buckets were warm and the band provided great music into the night at the 2025 Canowindra Show esky ball.

The fundraiser event was hosted at the showgrounds on Saturday, 26 July, with 175 tickets sold and 30 sponsors on the invitation list.

Numbers were a little down, due to the damp weather, but President Jacob Moriarty was thrilled with the community response.

"I can definitely say it was a great night," he said.

K’nOath provided entertainment into the night, and the photobooth was very popular with the crowd.

The Show Society thanks Mandy Townsend for the night’s fantastic decorations; Galea Fruit and Veg for the grazing platters; Anthony at the Canowindra Country Bakehouse for both his donation and his hard work; and Eugowra’s Fat Parcel for the popular hot food.

Our annual show is fast approaching, gates opening for the Friday afternoon on 26 September, with a full day of Show fun Saturday, 27 September.

"We've got big things planned for Canowindra Show now, so after this we'll keep planning," Mr Moriarty said.

He thanked all the sponsors who have come on board to support this year's big event.

One of the great ways more people can get involved with the Show is through the Young Woman and Rural Achiever competitions, with anyone interested encouraged to contact Rianna Reeves on 0427 448 370 or by emailing riannareeves05@gmail.com before Sunday, 24 August.
