Kadina Show Society was established in 1871 and despite Covid in 2021 celebrated its 150th show in style. It was the best show for the past 10 years.

The Kadina Show Society is a very successful show community organisation always featuring traditional and current day events to make the show unique with attractions from across the Copper Coast community of Wallaroo, Moonta & Kadina.

The website will soon contain the 2024 Show Book with at least 24 Sections, covering all types of Exhibits & Competitions, embracing sections for Seniors, Juniors and from people with Special Needs, Indigenous, different Nationalities; encouraging as many people as possible to participate in 2024. 

In 2024 Kadina will be sponsoring the Yorke Peninsula Zone Genoa Cake Semi final championships, the winner to compete for the State prize at the 2025 Royal Adelaide show competitions.

Kadina will also conduct a Laucke/CWA scone competition which is conducted at all three shows on Yorke Peninsula. All show winners are then judged at a special function and the winner will go on to compete at the State Finals at the Royal Adelaide Show

The Copper Coast Show motto is: - “Show casing the community” and encourages involvement, from Service Clubs, Community Organizations, Schools as well as participating Trades People.  Each year the Show Society conducts an Ag Xtra Trail. On Friday 16th August it will conduct a LED School Cattle & Goat Competition providing the means for young children to learn about various aspects of farming life and where their food actually comes from. It also gives participating school students some ideas about how similar competitions are run at the Royal Adelaide Show. In 2023 participating schools came from Kadina, Port Broughton, Maitland, Balaklava and Port Pirie.

It also conducts a major Colouring Competition through some 26 schools across the Mid North and Yorke Peninsula. On show days there are attractions for all ages. 

Look out for  “Copper Coast Show Supporters” signs in participating businesses and organisations.
