Magic, Music and Clydesdales at the 2025 Clunes Show
Clunes and District Agricultural Society Inc
The annual Clunes Spring Show is always a family favourite and this year will be no exception. Mark the calendar for the event on Saturday 15 th November, 2025.
This year the program is highlighted by comedy magician Scott Stunz. Scott will amaze and entertain on the main stage at 12:00pm and 3:00pm. There will also be roving balloon magic for all the family to enjoy.
The horse arena is always busy on Show Day but this year the amazing Clydesdales will make a comeback from 1:00pm. We will also be joined by the beautiful Sandy Creek Clydesdales with their magnificent horses on display. Their blacksmithing demonstrations during the day will take you back to days of old.
The main stage will be buzzing throughout the day with local musicians. We’ll have local soloist Caylee Jane and the Wesley College student band in the morning. Then we can’t wait to welcome the zany Ballan Community Street Band for the lunchtime gig. Visitors might remember Mitch Matheson from last year’s Show-we are super excited to welcome him back from 3.30pm.
Animals are always a huge part of any country show, and Clunes is no exception. The “Big Ones, Tall Ones, Small Ones and Really Tiny and Slimy Fun Pet Show” is always a hit-bring along anything other than a horse for the judging at 1:00. There’s also Wicked Wildlife, pony rides and ferret racing throughout the day. Not to mention the livestock competitions and judging which are such a key element to any country show.
The Dog High Jump competition is an annual crowd favourite. That’s at 2:00pm so don’t miss that, or the ladies woodsplit, gumboot throw, keg throw and tug of war throughout the afternoon. All great spectacles and good for a laugh while you enjoy a quiet drink at the bar.
The Bute Ute competition has been a much loved feature of the Show for years. Bring yours and try your luck. Entries are taken until 11:30 on Showday.
The kids will love the Giant Sandpit, carnival rides, face painting, puppets and showbags.
The Homecrafts pavilion will be filled with home cookery, floral displays, art, photography and a whole lot more. Competition entries close for most sections on Tuesday November 4th so make a real day of it and get some entries in. The schedule can be found on the website clunesshow.com.au.
The Clunes Show is a cracking good day with heaps to entertain all ages. Admission for adults is only $20 and kids under 16 enter for free. Don’t miss it!
