The 138th annual Omeo and District show is on the horizon, poised for November 14 and 15 and bringing with it the vibrant tapestry of rural life that has made it a much-loved event of the East Gippsland calendar.
Preparations are well and truly underway and locals and visitors alike can look forward to a day brimming with excitement, tradition and the spirit of the Omeo community.
This year’s show will blend rural events with fresh attractions and fierce competition, designed for young and old. Newcomers will have a unique glimpse into High Country life.
At the heart of the Omeo and District Show is its renowned shearing competitions — a highlight that brings shearers, wool growers and judges from far and wide to the Quick shears and Great Alpine Shears Championships.
Quick Shears will be held on the evening of November 14.
Charity Wool Bales 2025 is already receiving donated fleeces to be baled then auctioned. All proceeds go to support the Latrobe Valley Base Helimed 1 Auxiliary (Vic Ambulance helicopter fleet).
The generosity of woolgrowers, Elders, Omeo and District Show, Grinters Transport, woolbuyers at auction, plus special donors Stratford Lions and the Meerlieu and District Community Club make it happen.
