Well we have bitten the bullet and decided that this year we will visit the Ekka. Due to the bad outbursts of winter and swine flu i have avoided going the last couple of years but the kids are driving me mad so i have given in,lol.

For anyone who isnt sure The Ekka is a massive show in Brisbane that is held once a year. Its a big deal here in oz and we are even given an Ekka Public holiday on Wednesday,lol. There is a link here to the Ekka website for more info
Ekka: The Official Website

If there is anyone reading who has been ,any hints and tips, must see's etc much appreciated

Hi Cal,

Hope you have a great day out at the Ekka, out here where I live we had a days holiday yesterday as "Ekka day", When I asked if anyone goes to the Ekka from here, I was told, no but normally we have a days holiday in April for our own show. The local show was cancelled this year so there was no holiday and it was decided that the town would have an Ekka day instead.

Oh well any excuse to get a days holiday

 

We went to Dreamworld for our Ekka day holiday!!! We had ours yesterday in the Redlands!!

Love

Rudi

well we survived the Ekka yesterday . It peed down all day but was still warm so although we resembled drowned rats by tea time we still had lots of fun.
I would go again as i thought value for money was quite good and the amount of free stuff for kids was unreal.
