With almost 400 different show bags available at this year’s Ekka, there will be something for everyone — even in the middle of a cost-of-living crisis.

“As a not-for-profit organisation, we want to ensure the Ekka is affordable and can be enjoyed on any budget,” RNA chief executive Brendan Christou said.

“This year’s budget conscious Ekka also sees the first ever introduction of a low-cost menu item and food and drink bundles starting from $7.50 across over 110 Show food outlets.”

The showbags have been a show highlight since the Ekka began in 1876. This year’s including everything from Pokemon JNR, Wizz Fizz Super Sour Bag, NBA Milwaukee Bucks, Big Pet Dog Bag, Mr Beast Feastables and Kuromi.
