Dipper to star at Glen Innes Show

The annual Glen Innes Show arrives at the Glen Innes Showground on Friday 10th February to Sunday 12th February, with a something for all ages.

Friday and Saturday are the two major days, beginning at 8:30am and ending at roughly 10pm. Sunday will also start at 8:30am but conclude before sunset.

Scott Brown, President of the Glen Innes Show Society, is eager for the locals to enjoy the three-day show, especially the Friday night feature.

โ€œWeโ€™ve got Robert โ€˜Dipperโ€™ DiPierdomenico coming to open the show on Friday, an AFL star of the 1980โ€™s, so any AFL fans looking to have an intimate night with the โ€˜Dipperโ€™ should come along. Weโ€™re expecting it to be a highlight of the show.โ€

Tickets are available for the Friday night dinner and entertainment from the Glen Innes Show Office for $200.

Mr Brown was also optimistic about the Performance Pavilion that will host many local artists over the weekend.

โ€œWeโ€™ve got live music and dance groups putting on a show for most of the day and evening on Friday and Saturday. Weโ€™re hopeful thatโ€™ll draw an audience from the town folks.โ€

Many of the treasured theatrics will return to thrill the crowd, such as FMX freestyle motorcycles, lawn mower racing, smash-up derby, horse show-jumping, and fireworks.
