2019 Competitions

Welcome from the President

Our Royal Queensland Show (Ekka) competitions are the ultimate showcase of the best of the best. They reward and recognise our valued exhibitors for achieving excellence and promote agriculture and the critical role it plays in our everyday lives to Queenslanders.

In 2018, more than 4,125 exhibitors travelled to the Ekka for their chance to win a coveted blue ribbon and share in the $530,000 prize pool, including 1,186 new competitors.

We received 21,000 entries across 11,000 classes in 48 competition sections, with an increase in entries across many categories including Canine, Cookery, Dairy Goats, Education on Show, Poultry and Farriers and Blacksmiths.

It was pleasing to see large crowds acknowledging the achievements of our exhibitors, with more than 414,000 people attending the 2018 show - our biggest Ekka since 2011.

Some of our competitions were even recognised at the International Association of Fairs and Expositions (IAFE) Awards, which represents more than 1,100 fairs around the world. The Ekka won 24 international awards including 16 first places, with the Floristry, Race Around Ekka, Little Sprouts, Cookery and Student Made Cheese competitions all placing.

The RNA is also committed to providing exhibitors with world-class facilities to use, through our $2.9 billion Brisbane Showgrounds Regeneration Project.

In 2019, our Canine Competition exhibitors will use the new Alexandria Park, offering an undercover area for benching and a grassed area for judging. Also this year, all four storeys of our world first animal pavilion will be in use for the very first time, housing many animals including beef and dairy cattle, poultry and sheep.

For 143 years the RNA has been dedicated to championing agriculture and is honoured to stage Queensland’s largest event on behalf of the community each year.

Good luck and we look forward to seeing your entries at the 2019 Royal Queensland Show.

Only horses which have proof of vaccination will be allowed to enter the showgrounds and compete at the events. Exhibitors will be required to provide the microchip number at the time of entry for each vaccinated horse. This pertains to every class including Rider Classes. Microchip numbers are supplied at the first dose of the vaccine. Entries will not be accepted without a microchip number. All entries will be verified by Zoetis Australia and the RNA’s accredited veterinarian. Horses will also be scanned and checked throughout the Show.

EXHIBITORS PLEASE NOTE: Horses must have received their second dose of the Hendra Vaccination 21 days prior to 1 August 2019. (This information is correct at the time of publishing. If any changes are made, Exhibitors will be duly notified).

DISCLAIMER: The decision whether to have any animal vaccinated against the Hendra virus and compete at the Show is made at the exhibitor’s absolute discretion. The RNA is not liable for, and the exhibitor and owner release the RNA from any liability for, any death or illness of an horse and damage, loss or claim incurred by the exhibitor or owner arising from the vaccination of the horse against the Hendra virus or the contraction of the Hendra virus in the event that the vaccination fails.

COURSE BUILDER SELECTION PROCESS

The following outlines the collaborative process used by the Councillors of the Horse and Arena Committee to select the course builder for Royal Queensland Show horse competitions.

The committee’s aim is to provide variety to competitors from year to year. This has to be tempered with the availability of individual judges, bearing in mind that Ekka is mainly during a working week. The Committee also has to work within a budget and cost considerations such as travel for national/international judges must be considered.

Other issues considered by the Committee include the proficiency of individual judges, such as a high level ability to rank and to remain consistent throughout competition.

The RNA reserves the right at all times to:

(a) Substitute a Judge when necessary;(b) Re-allocate Judging days for a particular breed.(c) If entries numbers require an extra Judge, appoint an

additional Judge if necessary.

The final list of judges is approved by the Horse and Arena Committee.

Hay, Chaff, Silage and Green Fodder may only be introduced if:

(a) It is grown in and held in a Tick Free Zone andtransported directly to the RNA Grounds, or

(c) It is silage from a Cattle Tick Infected Zone which hasbeen harvested and wrapped in plastic for a period ofnot less than 28 days prior to entry to the RNAGrounds.

If the fodder is accompanying livestock from interstate then a description of the fodder may be endorsed on the livestock permit or Owner Declaration.

Materials not carrying the necessary certificate under the above Regulations will not gain entry to the grounds.

It is the responsibility of the exhibitor to provide all fodder and top up bedding requirements for his/her exhibits.

The following materials may be used for bedding: Sawdust or Shavings must only be used for top up of bedding, bags of which will be stocked by the official Produce Merchant.

Within the limits of the storage space assigned to exhibitors they may bring their own bedding and fodder to the grounds prior to the commencement of the Show.

After midnight on the Thursday prior to the start of the Show, no fodder or hay type bedding will be permitted onto the grounds unless for, and accompanied by livestock on the same vehicle, unless the Director otherwise permits.
