The Rangiora A&P Show proudly showcases the very best of rural North Canterbury, attracting competitors and visitors from across the region and the South Island. For more than 150 years, the Northern A&P Association has been bringing town and country together to celebrate our farming heritage and community spirit.
The Show features some of Canterbury’s top equestrian and rural sporting talent, with highlights including show hunter events, shearing, wood chopping, Highland dancing, and dog trials. Visitors can also enjoy the livestock competitions, where leading breeders present sheep, cattle, poultry, donkeys, alpacas, and more.
Local creativity is on display in the Produce Shed, featuring entries in Cooking, Needlework, Knitting, Handspun, Art, Photography, Woodwork & Models, Junior Arts & Crafts, Murals, and Flower Arranging.
Beyond the competitions, there’s something for everyone: food, craft, market, and trade stalls, vintage machinery displays, and a full programme of entertainment. Families will love the Kids Zone, live music, motorbike stunt riders, mounted games, rare breeds, farmyard fun, pony rides, duck herding, and of course, the much-loved Terrier Race.
🚜 New for this year: don’t miss the Furniture Race – with both motorised and pedalled entries – and the search for Mr and Mrs Rangiora, who will take to the catwalk in our Country Glam Fashion Show!
