Why exhibit

Two days, one region, thousands of customers

The Riverland Field Days draws farmers, growers, tradies, families and visitors from across the Riverland, Mallee and Sunraysia. Exhibitors range from the biggest machinery dealers in the state to local clubs and start-ups, across 45 product and service categories.

Every exhibitor is listed in the official program, which is delivered to households across the region and handed out at the gates. Site holders also receive free two-day passes, access to the free goods pickup service and support from a committee that has been doing this since 1958.
