The 62nd Redcliffe Show

The 62nd Annual Redcliffe Show is back for the first 3 days of July and while it's no Ekka, it's a chance for you to visit and possibly love the place so many people have tainted (including me haha).

Overview

When I was at uni, every time I told someone in those awkward get-to-know-you tutes that I was from Redcliffe, I was met with shock. Sure, it made it into the top 10 most bogan towns in Australia, and it has a dense elderly population, but there's no straying from the fact we have a sweet beach lifestyle and our local shopping centre has a vicious taxi line to envy a Saturday night in the valley.

All jokes aside, the 62nd Annual Redcliffe Show is back for the first 3 days of July and while it's no Ekka, it's a chance for you to visit and possibly love the place so many people have tainted (including me haha). What's in store? Uhh, monster fireworks! There's also showbags, rides and a petting zoo. It's almost like a real show! Most exciting of all for me (and perhaps you?) is the Xmas in July celebration. Screw the KGS Winter Festival, there's a bloody snow slide in the 'Cliffe, yo.

Don't be dissuaded by what you've heard about my hometown, the Redcliffe Show is actually going to be fun. You even have to travel on the Southern Hemisphere's longest bridge to get there (hey, I'll try anything). It's on all weekend at the Redcliffe Showgrounds, -whispers- snow slide.
