Riverina Field Days Return in 2026 – A New Chapter at Whitton Malt House

9th December 2025

Posted in: News

After a brief hiatus and uncertainty about its future, one of the Riverina’s most iconic agricultural events is back—and bigger than ever. The Riverina Field Days will take place on Friday 27 and Saturday 28 March 2026 at its stunning new home, Whitton Malt House, marking an exciting new era for this much-loved event.

Set against the backdrop of Whitton Malt House’s lakeside agritourism precinct, the Field Days promise two unforgettable days of connection, discovery, and celebration. Visitors can expect the latest in on-farm technology, machinery, and equipment, alongside hands-on demonstrations, expert talks, and practical displays. But it’s not just for those on the land—the event will also feature a vibrant marketplace of artisan goods, local produce, home and garden wares, fashion, and lifestyle products, plus live entertainment, food trucks, and family-friendly activities.

“This new chapter marks not just the return of the Field Days, but a revitalised celebration of agriculture, innovation, and community spirit,” said the event organisers. “Whitton Malt House offers expansive grounds, modern facilities, and a unique connection to the region’s agricultural heritage—making it the perfect venue for an event of this scale.” [happeningnext.com]

The move to Whitton Malt House follows challenges faced by previous hosts, including weather disruptions and infrastructure limitations at Griffith Showgrounds. The new venue provides larger display areas for machinery and equipment, on-site hospitality, and even accommodation options, ensuring a premium experience for exhibitors and visitors alike.

“We’re thrilled to welcome Riverina Field Days to Whitton Malt House,” said Kaitlin Leonard, General Manager of Whitton Malt House. “Our vision has always been to create a destination that celebrates the best of the Riverina—agriculture, food, and community. Hosting this event is a natural extension of that vision.” [rdariverina.org.au]
