Melbourne Royal Show 2025: ticket prices frozen, new LEGO farm announced
Don't miss out on the headlines from News. Followed categories will be added to My News. Melbourne Royal Show has frozen tickets at 2024 prices and will be selling food for as little as $3.50 when the much-loved 11-day event kicks off next month. Children under five will enter for free, while early birds will be able to snare tickets for less than last year, with prices at $39.60 for adults and $20.80 for children. Melbourne Royal says the reasoning behind the price freeze is that it wanted to 'keep the magic of the show accessible for all Victorians'. 'We have listened to customer feedback and not increased general admission tickets this year, we are offering bigger savings on early bird tickets, and introduced a Flexi-Ticket for those who want to get their ticket early but are unsure which day they may attend,' Melbourne Royal chief executive Brad Jenkins said. More than 400 showbags, 55 rides and 80 food and beverage outlets will be on offer, with Mr Jenkins adding that more than 400,000 people are expected to attend from Thursday, September 25 to Sunday, October 5. One of the big new experiences to be revealed this year will be the never-before-seen Lego Duplo Farm, along with a new world-class Illusionist show. Kids can get up close and cuddly with thousands of animals at the Little Farmers Field, where they can feed friendly baby animals, shear a sheep, dig up vegies, collect eggs and ride a Kubota tractor. A new daily farmers' barbecue will be added to the food precinct, with $3.50 sausages up for grabs, with proceeds going towards the Melbourne Royal Foundation. All food trucks are also stocking a healthy item option for under $10. 'Come with family and friends to see the animals, farm experiences, stay to enjoy spectacular entertainment and fireworks and leave with a showbag or two, a huge smile and a lifetime of wonderful memories,' Mr Jenkins said. Thrillseekers can also take advantage of an unlimited ride pass on day one of the show for $50 for kids shorter than 120cm, and $75 for everyone else. And the beloved Bertie Beetle Showbag will return at the same price as last year, along with a number of other sweet-treat options, all priced at $5.
