AT 4pm tomorrow, the gates will open and the 2015 Wanneroo Agricultural Show will get under way.
It is the largest regional show in WA, second only to the Perth Royal Show.
The Wanneroo Show has a proud history dating back to 1909 when the first show was held following a decision of the Wanneroo Roads Board to form a committee to display the district’s produce and livestock. Two names on the first committee, Cockman and Gibbs, may be found on the 2015 committee.
