With the New Zealand Agricultural Show cancelled this year due to COVID-19, and the Committees instead running smaller competitions to keep their rural communities united, we wanted to bring a little something to the city too.

The City Farmyard will offer the chance to get up close and personal with lambs, calves, bunnies, ducklings, chickens, and more.

Along with tasty food trucks and sweet treats to keep you going, the team from Smokin Que Crew will be onsite with one of their highly anticipated pop-ups, serving up delicious low and slow BBQ. There will also be pony rides, a merry-go-round, and other family friendly activities on offer. These elements will be accessible to those that do not hold tickets to the Farmyard itself.

In order to secure a slot in the City Farmyard element, a ticket must be pre-purchased online. Everyone entering the farmyard will need a ticket due to limits in capacity and a need to track numbers due to animal welfare.

Prams will not be allowed in, but there will be a secure storage area provided. Infants (i.e. those under 12 months and who will be carried) will not need a ticket, this will be strictly monitored on the day.
