Aviary

The first record of aviary birds being exhibited at the Sydney Royal Easter Show was in 1869 and more than 150 years on, our feathered friends remain a favourite for Show-goers.

Imagine your feathered friend posing perfectly at the Sydney Royal Easter Show, basking in the applause and admiration of the crowd! What a fantastic way to showcase your breed and promote Australian Aviculture. 

Your feathered friend could become the star of the Show, winning hearts and perhaps even a few ribbons. Plus, you’ll get to meet other passionate owners, share stories and make new friends. It’s a fun celebration, and who knows, your bird might just steal the spotlight and become the next big sensation!

The Sydney Royal Aviary Bird Show is an explosion of colour and birdsong every day of Show.
