We are pleased to inform our competitors, exhibitors and sponsors that the Bonalbo Showgrounds are no longer under restrictions as an adjoining holding for Cattle Tick. After months of regular treatment with support from NSW DPIRD, our immediate neighbours have successfully completed their eradication program, with no Cattle Tick detected since the initial discovery in early 2025.
In conjunction with DPIRD the adjoining holdings will be conducting a proactive risk mitigation program until 30 April 2026, to ensure Cattle Ticks remain eradicated.
We appreciate the significant efforts of our neighbours and the NSW DPIRD over the previous period to control and eradicate cattle ticks, acknowledging that this is extremely important to the viability of the cattle industry in north-eastern NSW.
We are pleased to confirm that effective immediately, there are no longer any controls for the movement of stock from the Bonalbo Showgrounds.
We thank everyone for their ongoing support and look forward to seeing you at the Bonalbo Showgrounds to celebrate our Centenary Show on Friday 17 and Saturday 18 April 2026.
