Come along and visit the Melbourne Polytechnic team at the Whittlesea Show. We will have a stand with Higher Education and Vocational Education staff from our Agriculture, Horticulture, Conservation and Viticulture interest areas.
The Whittlesea Show began as a fair in 1859 and has grown to become one of the best shows in Victoria. It is a signature event in the Melbourne Community Calendar with large crowds flocking to the Whittlesea Showgrounds every year.
The purpose of the Whittlesea Show is to educate, inform and entertain. It brings agriculture, farming and rural knowledge to the wider public. The Whittlesea Show is a presentation opportunity for food, farmers and a trading place for rural skills and crafts, ranging from vintage to modern, showcasing changing farming practices through machinery, animals and ways of life.
The Whittlesea Show is held on the first full weekend in November each year. A very active committee is behind this successful event which by reputation conducts the largest two-day agricultural show in Victoria.
