The Beginning
According to Pioneering in the Bellinger Valley the Bellinger River Agricultural Association presented the first Bellingen Show at Fernmount in 1883.
On the ninth day of May 1985 the association became an incorporated public company and the Bellinger River Agricultural Society Limited was born. The 100th Show was held in 1988 and the Society is still presenting this historic event today
