See the Perth Royal Show website for a lot more information. (that is the right link, but it doesn’t always work, the Royal Show site seems to be getting more visitors than it can handle!!)

Update: TFP has done a great post with nice photos about her day at the show on Saturday.

    This is a very detailed article but tyhe link to the show website is not working

  2. Simone says:

    Hi Cameron,

    Thanks for letting me know, it seems they’ve got to many visitors trying to get to their site. It’s definetly the right link, I’ve used it a few times now.
    Hopefully it will work again soon!

    :)

  3. Simone says:

    Yay, it’s working again!

  4. Nina says:

    were can you see the showbags??

  5. Simone says:

    I don’t know to be honest!
    I don’t see anything on on the offical website(when you click on showbags, it leads back to the homepage.. maybe they’re still working on it..), and a google search doesn’t help (which is probably how you came here in the first place!!)

    I think they usually have a booklet that comes out with the whole program and showbags, that gets distributed by a newspaper, maybe a week or so before the show?
    Anybody know any details about that?

    Sorry I can’t help!!

  6. Simone says:

    In today’s West Australian should be a supplement about the Perth Royal Show, with all the showbags!

    Also, the Perth Royal Show’s website now has a search function for showbags (though doesn’t seem to be working very well):

    hi everybody,
    The showbags guide on the perth royal show homepage does work now! But you can’t use the search engine it doesn’t work. Use the price range instead. If u want the full guide of the showbags it will come out in the west australian this week in a booklet which is much better.

  8. Simone says:

    Thanks Amanda!

  9. NICK says:

    Does anyone know a link to the show bags or a map of the show ground becasue the royal show site doesn’t appear to work for me =[.

    Nick

  10. Simone says:

    Hi Nick,

    The website isn’t working for me either. Just like a week or so ago!
    I think they’ve run out of bandwith, they’ve got to many people looking at their site! (bit silly!)

    Maybe you can find a friend or family member who got the liftout of the West Australian?

    Good luck :)

    Simone

  11. Amanda says:

    awww i missed out on the guide of showbags :( When was it out? Hopefully they sell it at the show.

    x Amanda x

  12. jorja says:

    where can you get a guide of all the sowags?

  13. Simone says:

    I think it was out in the past week sometime.

    I think you can buy the guide at the showgrounds, not sure though….

    Jorja: as said, it came out with the West. It’s also available on the website(though I don’t know if ALL the showbags are on there), but the website is having trouble coping with so many visitors today!!

  17. Simone says:

    All I know is that you can buy a Show Guide at the Information booths at a few entry gates. Read here:
    http://www.perthroyalshow.com.au/information/services-general/

    I\’m sorry, but I don\’t think it\’s available anywhere on the internet.
    I\’d post you one, or scan it for you, but I don\’t have one either!
    Try asking family/friends/neighbours maybe?

    Good luck!

    Kind regards,

    Simone
