The John Marchetti Shed is located at the North East end of the showgrounds near the cattle exhibits.
There are many varied attractions and exhibits located in and around this facility. The shed was given a face lift in 2021 with the addition of a colourful Mural created by talented Mural Artist Jerome Davenport. The Society wishes to thank all of the people from the farming community who donated funds towards this creative project.
