From its inception, livestock and wool producers have used exhibits as a yard stick for achievement of a very high standard.

The present day Campbell Town Show is a two day event which provides displays and competitions in a wide and varied programme. Commercial competitions and a focus on sustainable agriculture and lifestyle are a strong feature.
