Gunnedah Shire Council
Gunnedah Shire Council has celebrated the completion of significant works at the Gunnedah Showground, with the multi-purpose facility transformed into an exciting major event venue.
The Showground redevelopment received $1.79 million in funding through the NSW Public Reserve Management Fund and two rounds of the NSW Government’s Stronger Communities Fund, supported by Council co-contributions of $442,775.
Completed work includes new rodeo and camp draft arenas, new grand stand seating, new amenities and shower block, and refurbishment of existing amenities buildings.
Enhancing safety and access was a key aim of the refurbishment, which also features a disability access upgrade to the gymnasium and the addition of 5 wheelchair accessible picnic tables and shelters.
