Our Showgrounds: 140 years of success
Melbourne Showgrounds has been the home of the Royal Melbourne Show, Victoria’s largest and most iconic annual community event, since 1883. Over time Melbourne Showgrounds has grown into Melbourne’s largest and most versatile indoor/outdoor space for events, exhibitions, music festivals, exams, television production and more.
The site attracts around one million visitors per year (including the Show) and contributes to the estimated $430 million that the RASV provides to the state of Victoria.
