The Yarram show committee have made the extremely difficult but inevitable decision to cancel this year’s event. There were many contributing factors including sponsorship, volunteers, guidelines for continuing the event to ensure social distancing and hygiene and the reality of the health risk for our volunteers and the general community. We were given little choice with current restrictions and the reality of enforcing and monitoring these, we have joined most of the other Gippsland Shows in cancelling, including the Royal Melbourne Show. With our limited workforce and considering most of our volunteers fall within the vulnerable category meant we had to make the responsible decision. We are committed to looking at other options once restrictions are eased and would like to reassure our district that the 2021 Yarram AG Show will make up for the break.
