The Australian Sheep & Wool Show 2025

The Australian Sheep & Wool Show is held during the third week of July, encompassing the Friday, Saturday and Sunday. It is held at The Prince of Wales Showground, in Bendigo and is the largest Show of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere. It is the best place to see an extraordinary variety of sheep.

The Heritage breeds compete against their own kind in a variety of Classes, predominantly based on age and gender to find the best of the best. Then on the Sunday the winners of those Classes compete against other breeds in the Interbreed and Specialty classes.

2025 marked the Centenary of the Australian Stud Sheep Breeders Association (ASSBA) and the black and yellow sashes on some of the sheep are the ASSBA Centenary sashes.

This year, all ten Heritage breeds were represented.
