The giant rock climbing wall and the three way bungee ride come courtesy of the State government Drought Stimulus-Country Show Sponsorship program.
The show is being held at Nabiac Showground on Saturday, March 14 and it has plenty of highlights.
"As a small diversion from the events of the last few months in our area - drought and bushfires - our committee wanted to ensure that the focus for this year's show would be family entertainment, at minimum cost," president, John Baker said.
All the regular fun of sideshow alley, rides and goodies will be available for one and all and the carnival rides are still only $30 for a wrist band granting all-day access.
For those who like their entertainment a little more sedate traditional agricultural show activities, ring events, showjumping, dairy goats, beef cattle, poultry and dogs will be on show.
More than 400 dogs in all shapes and sizes are expected to enter the judging ring for one of the largest dog shows outside the Sydney Royal Show.
Some area schools send their agricultural students along to compete in special beef cattle classes for the best presented and prepared school group.
In the hall there will be fabulous displays of art, craft and handiworks including photography, cooking, patchwork, felting, weaving, crochet, knitting, plants and floral art, and the produce shed will be filled with a plethora of locally grown fruit and vegetables; the size of some of the pumpkins is unbelievable and eggs and honey and cheeses.
Bob Withey with his Snake Tails reptile display and Old Mac's Animal Farm have lots of experiences to share, while there also will be numerous trade stalls selling everything from spicy foods, soaps, nick knack's to clothing, jewellery, lollies.
The evening entertainment starts at 5pm with the Doggy High Jump. The popular event gives dog owners the chance to see how high their pooch can jump.
The high jump is followed by the lawn mower racing demonstrations.
The excitement really starts to rev up next as the Demo Derby with more than 20 entries expected to show their stuff in the main ring.
This will be followed by the fireworks display which is expected to start around 8pm.
The Wallamba District Show is a great day's entertainment for all of the family and the entry fees haven't change in years.
Adults $10, kids (3-15) $5, families $30 (two Adults and three children), pensioner (over 60), seniors and veterans $5.
