The Bungendore Showground Trust (BST) is a voluntary organisation. The role of the BST is to manage and oversee the use, bookings, maintenance and upgrade of the facilities and infrastructure that make the Bungendore Showground a popular and preferred venue for a wide range of users.

 

The ground covers an area of 67ha and is owned by the NSW Lands Department – but managed and funded through the Trust and supported through major volunteer User Groups.  It includes facilities for large or small scale events, including open yards for up to 250 horses.

 

The showground is frequently used for events including Bungendore Show, Polocrosse carnivals, Eventing and Pony Club camps as well as large scale weekend equestrian events,  training activities and clinics.   

 

The NSW Sheep Dog Trials, Dog Show and several Caravan clubs also conduct events at the grounds.  We do encourage casual camping . and the the grounds are listed in a number of camping and caravanning sites and journals.  However, it is advised that campers check our website or contact the Bookings Member in advance as there are times when the grounds are closed to casual campers during major events.

 

The Showground is a great venue to cater for music festivals such as the annual Bungendore Country Muster and other functions such as Club presentations, weddings and family gatherings.

 

The BST along with the Principal User Groups raise funds and work together to maintain and upgrade the facilities including buildings, yards, arenas, riding areas, cross country course and amenities.
