BACKGROUND

Freds Pass Reserve, established in 1977 is approximately 31 kms South from Darwin City. Set in picturesque surrounds the reserve provides facilities for sporting groups and community Groups.
Each May, the reserve is home to the Freds Pass Rural Show.

2012 will see the Show celebrate its 34th year – a milestone for an event which commenced as a school fete.

The Freds Pass Rural Show is an annual event providing a regional focus on productivity, enterprise and community.

The aim of the Show is to provide a forum to showcase the diverse range of industries including pastoralism, agriculture, horticulture, mining and manufacture as well as to provide an opportunity for community groups to hold their annual fundraising.
