If you are local to the Hunter Valley, then there is no doubt you have heard of the famous Tocal Field Days.
No? Well it is a rural exhibition for farming and agriculture (hobby farmers included) but it is also so much more than that. It highlights local produce, the latest and greatest innovations as well as some fantastic demonstrations. It is held at the Tocal Agricultural Centre, which has celebrated 50+ years and this year Tocal Field Days will continue the annual tradition!
Tocal Field Days demonstrations and displays
A few of the great demonstrations, features and displays mentioned previously include:
Urban and community gardening
Animal nursery
Cattle Dog demonstrations
Billy Boiling Competition
Ute Muster (Sunday)
Bake or Burn
Tocal Horse Course display
Talent at Tocal
Courses
When we went to the last one, the kids had the best time (so did my husband and father in law). There is so much to see and do and there is definitely something to keep everyone entertained. With options from learning about new equipment, to seeing how the old chuggers worked; it was definitely an education.
For those who are looking to make purchases, there are as you would expect some great show prices from vendors and suppliers so it is definitely worth popping down and checking out.
Concerned about whether it is appropriate for kids? Don’t be. It is a day for families and community. Children are definitely considered when planning the days and offer: rides, free crafts, entertainment, piglet races and much more.
If you want something to do this weekend or just want to get out of the house, pop down and check out the Hunter Valley Tocal Field Days, May 5-7.

I love going to the Tocal open days . Especially visiting the old homestead, just sitting and relaxing, drinking in all the calm and charm of a by-gone era. We started taking our kids when they were young, now they are 30 and 25. They still love it !
