The 2022 Mackay Sugar Ag Trade Expo

It’s the popular two-day celebration and showcase of all things agriculture across the regions of Mackay, Isaac and Whitsunday.

In its fourth year, the Mackay Sugar Ag Trade Expo was unfortunately postponed due to heavy rain earlier this year, but organisers are optimistic that the rescheduled August date will plough ahead.

Not only will the show shine alongside what is hoped will be great weather, but organisers are saying it’s bigger and better than ever, with even more exhibitors coming onboard for the rescheduled event.

The family friendly event will include live music by singing sister duo “Gottani Sisters”, cooking demonstrations and exhibitor demonstrations on both days and a kidszone on the Saturday with amusement rides including a jumbo slide and jumping castle. There will be a gate prize and a raffle.

Entry is only $5 for adults and children under 16 are free.

Head along to Wests Leagues Club in Walkerston on Friday 12th August, 8:30am - 5pm and again on Saturday the 13th of August between 8:30am and 3pm, for days of family fun.
