Esk-cellent show weekend
Esk came alive with music, laughter, lawn mowers, and animals as the 121st Esk Show was held on May 23 and 24.
The much-loved event once again delivered a packed program, thanks to the tireless efforts of the Esk Show Society.
Featuring everything from agricultural competitions to exhilarating entertainment, the show reaffirmed its place as a cornerstone of the Somerset calendar.
Friday launched the festivities with Prime Beef and horse events, as well as the Linda Trotter Memorial Dog Show — all drawing large crowds and strong entries.
Saturday proved to be the main drawcard, with showgoers flooding in to enjoy a vibrant mix of attractions. Families were treated to free rides, woodchopping, lawnmower racing, the ute show, and a full schedule of stud beef competitions.
Backed by a community of dedicated volunteers, the Esk Show continues to unite generations through rural heritage, entertainment, and shared memories.
