SUNDAY 2nd & MONDAY 3rd AUGUST 2026
Conducted by the Hamilton Pastoral & Agricultural Society in conjunction with the Hamilton and Western District Sheep Show.
While the name of our event prominently features sheep, we are not exclusively dedicated to sheep related activities...
Over the past 40+ years, Sheepvention has grown and evolved into a vibrant platform celebrating the many facets of the agricultural sector. It is more than an industry showcase - it's a family-friendly event designed to educate and inspire people of all ages about the rich and diverse world of agriculture, fostering a deeper appreciation for farming and its role in our lives.
Sheepvention is thoughtfully curated to feature a wide array of exhibitors, activities, and experiences tailored to engage not only farmers but also families, children, and anyone with a curiosity about agriculture.
Visitors can immerse themselves in dynamic exhibitions, hands-on workshops, and engaging demonstrations that highlight the diverse and evolving aspects of agriculture.
Our goal is to foster an inclusive environment where farmers, families and individuals can come together to connect, learn, and be inspired.
Sheepvention serves as a hub for networking, collaboration, and the exchange of knowledge, all while honouring the invaluable contributions of the farming community
