The Clevedon A&P Show 2026, a 117-year-old agricultural and pastoral show run by the Clevedon A&P Association, takes place 21-22 November 2026 at the Clevedon Showgrounds in rural southeast Auckland.
The Clevedon A&P Show is a two-day agricultural and pastoral show held on Saturday 21 and Sunday 22 November 2026 at the Clevedon Showgrounds, 107 Monument Road, Clevedon. According to the organiser, gates open 9am to 5pm on the Saturday and 9am to 4pm on the Sunday.
The programme spans traditional A&P fare and family entertainment: live music, horse trials, rural sports, animal competitions and farm animals, carnival rides, and food, beverage and farming vendors. The organiser lists feature attractions including sheep dog trials, mounted games, monocycle polo, a horse and hounds display, bubble soccer and a children's colouring competition.
The show is organised by the Clevedon A&P Association (per the society's own website). It is listed independently by the Royal Agricultural Society of New Zealand, which carries the event as the 'Clevedon Agricultural & Pastoral Association' show at the same Clevedon Showgrounds address. The organiser states the show has been running for 117 years, and the RAS listing dates the show's origins to 1909, making it one of the longer-running A&P shows in the Auckland region.
The show is pitched at families and the wider rural-and-urban community of southeast Auckland, bringing "the country into town" with a mix of competitive livestock and equestrian classes, rural skills and sideshow entertainment aimed at general public attendance rather than a trade-only audience.
Clevedon is a rural village in the southeast of the Auckland region, in the Franklin/Hunua area, roughly 40 km (about a 45-minute drive) southeast of Auckland's city centre. The Clevedon Showgrounds at 107 Monument Road is the permanent home of the show and a recognised rural events venue for the district.
As a long-established annual fixture with a dedicated organising society and a confirmed 2026 date and venue, the Clevedon A&P Show is a reliable entry on Auckland's spring events calendar and one of the region's enduring agricultural shows, drawing a mix of rural exhibitors and metropolitan day-trippers into the Clevedon valley each November.
