Add to that the popular Royal Easter Cat Show; the Royal Easter Show Art Awards, New Zealand’s largest art competition

thousands of Cadbury Easter Eggs for the audience, and you’ve got great entertainment for all ages and interests this
Easter.

family entertainment. All shows and attractions, excluding the carnival rides, are included in the entry price at no
