The Royal Easter Show

This is the most spell- bounding event held in Auckland. The Royal Easter Show began as an agricultural event to develop a sound farming economy but has achieved a remarkable position and grown to become the country's largest and most varied family festival. It is a show which appeals to children.

The first show was held in Auckland in 1843. This was purely an agricultural event, aiming to demonstrate excellence in agriculture and animal husbandry. It promotes the breeding of stud animals to establish and increase the farm animal gene pool in the emerging colony.

Now, the Royal Easter Show provides loads of entertainment for its diverse line of audience. It hosts Madagascar, a fantastic live stage show featuring Alex the Lion, Marty the Zebra. You can also sit back and watch the Noddy live stage show, featuring the loveable Noddy and his friend Tessie Bear. Then there's the Cadbury Great Bunny Show. Also Boogie Fever a retro dance band, celebrating the 70's Disco Era is shown. The Cadbury Crème Egg Circus EGGstravaganza, exclusive to the Royal Easter Show - this circus is sure to amaze and delight all ages.
