Melbourne Royal is incredibly grateful for the thousands of competitors who competed to win a coveted Melbourne Royal Blue ribbon and the hundreds of volunteers who generously provided their valuable time to assist us in presenting the 2024 Melbourne Royal Show.

The prestigious Melbourne Royal Distinguished Service & Achievement Awards for 2024 were celebrated on the inaugural day of the 2024 Melbourne Royal Show. The accolades were presented during the esteemed President's Lunch, held at the MasterChef Kicthen on Thursday, 26 September.

The Melbourne Royal Show proudly hosted the finals of the prestigious National Rural Ambassador competition, where each state sent their young ambassador to vie for the Australian title. Finalists, representing various industries, were interviewed by a panel of judges and enjoyed a behind-the-scenes tour of Melbourne Royal.

The excitement reached a fever pitch at the Melbourne Royal today, where the air was thick with anticipation as competitors showcased their finest livestock and showmanship skills. From the majestic mane of the Champion Show Hunter Galloway to the nimble paws of the best canine competitors, the day’s events celebrated excellence in equestrian, canine and cattle competitions.
