The Berwick Show Society has a long and
proud association with agricultural
competition in Victoria, tracing its
history back through the Mornington
Farmers Society to the founding body in
Victoria, the Port Phillip Farmers
Society which was established in 1848.
The Berwick Show of today is of course
very different to that conducted 160
years ago. Notwithstanding we are very
proud of the fact that our agricultural
and horticultural exhibits remain a
significant component of our Show. Our
cattle exhibit is one of the largest
outside the Royal Melbourne, and we have
significant Horse, Sheep, Alpaca, Goat,
and Poultry Exhibits.
Our Saturday night carnival continues to
be a highly successful and popular
component of our Show. A major success
factor being the very good working
relationship we have with the Victorian
Showmen’s Guild. Through their
co-operation we are able conduct a well
organised and safe event.
