2 - 3 minutesThe Royal Darwin Show is taking place this week at the Darwin Showgrounds. It runs from 24 to 26 July and celebrates its 74th year. Many people come each year to enjoy food, rides, music, and animal displays. This year, a new ride called the Aviator is exciting visitors with its fast spins and high swings.
The show began in 1951 as a small farming event. Back then, farmers showed their animals and sold local food. Today, the show still has cattle and horse events, but it also has more fun activities for families. One of the most popular events is the Celebrity Baking Challenge, where local guests try to bake the best cake.
People of all ages can enjoy the show. Children love the baby animals and colourful showbags, while teenagers enjoy the fast rides. Adults can see art, flowers, and traditional crafts. The Royal Darwin Show is a great way to bring the community together and enjoy the culture of the Northern Territory.
