Herald Sun readers pick favourite showbags at 2019 Royal Melbourne Show

There are hundreds to choose from, but five showbags in particular are proving to be the most in demand at this year’s Royal Melbourne Show.

Harry Potter has officially woven his magic on Melbourne show-goers.

The two Harry Potter showbags on offer at this year’s Royal Melbourne Show are the most wanted of the 360-plus available bags.

That’s according to the Herald Sun’s interactive showbag picker, which allows readers to find their favourites and add them to a printable shopping list.

The most-selected showbag is the $28 Harry Potter Classic, which includes a backpack, iron-on transfers, drink bottle, letter set, wand, socks, key ring and pens.

Coming in at a close second is the Harry Potter Charms bag, which also sells for $28 and includes a duffel bag, glasses, tattoos, pencil set, tin case and sticker book.

Rounding out the top five are the $5 Tooth Fairy Door Bag, the $26 Cat Squishy Bag, and the $5 Bertie Beetle Platinum Bag.

There is still time to pick up a bag at this year’s Royal Melbourne Show, which finishes at 9pm tomorrow, October 1, following the final fireworks display in the Herald Sun Arena at 7.50pm.

Organisers said the show was on track to hit the 500,000-plus attendance mark, surpassing last year’s crowd.

New attractions including a Jurassic Creatures pavilion, Future Pavilion, twice-daily parade, Cosentino show and Elton John Experience performance have been added to this year’s program alongside traditional animal displays, carnival rides and food offerings.
