A BIG THANK YOU TO OUR MANY AND VALUED “COMPETITION” SPONSORS AND PRIZE
CONTRIBUTORS IN 2021
On Tuesday June 22, 2021 the President of the Royal Agricultural Society of WA and the Premier of Western
Australian made a joint announcement that the 2021 Perth Royal Show would be going ahead. This was naturally
wonderful news and set about the big task of creating this year’s Show, including all our incredible Competitions.
At the time of publishing the various Competition Schedules, previous sponsors and prize contributors were being
contacted to once again support the Competitions. This is a big task, with detail still being collated and finalised.
Please be assured that the many prizes and acknowledgements that are a big part of the Competitions will again
be present in 2021 and we look forward to your involvement.
In due course the Competition sponsors and prize contributors will be acknowledged and we thank them for their
ongoing support.
