The Canungra Show Society is proud to announce the launch of the 2025 Canungra Show Ambassador and Canungra Rural Ambassador Programs. These initiatives are designed to showcase and support the development of young leaders in our region.

The Rural Ambassador Competition, in particular, aims to recognise emerging individuals who are making meaningful contributions to their local community, the Agricultural Show movement, and the broader rural and primary industries.

The Canungra Show Ambassador Program celebrates the heart and spirit of our Annual Show and Rodeo. As an ambassador, you’ll have the opportunity to champion local Agriculture, Horticulture, and Fine Arts, helping to raise awareness and appreciation for these vital areas. This program is all about fostering community connection, inspiring local pride, and supporting the ongoing legacy of the Canungra Show Society for generations to come.
