Scenic Rim Clydesdale Spectacular


Are you craving a weekend full of crisp country air? Head to Boonah on June 11 and 12 to enjoy the hugely popular Scenic Rim Clydesdale Spectacular!

From tiny Shetland ponies to the towering Shire horses, all Clydesdales great and small will descend on Boonah as part of the richest Clydesdale Show in the Southern Hemisphere. Over the two days, you can enjoy the Clydesdale competition, as well as workshops on heavy horse trades like harness making, blacksmithing, wheelwrights, horse-drawn demonstration, driving, whip plating and more. In addition to this, you can marvel at the Queensland Whip Cracking Championships, World Billy Boiling Championships, wood chopping, working dog displays, Friesian Horse Troupe performances & bush poetry. The two-day spectacular has been extended this year to include even more family events, interactive demonstrations, food experiences, and of course, horses! There are carriage rides, performances, artisan coopering, camels, the animal nursery and more.

In tribute to the Scottish descendants who moved to the region and brought with them their beloved Clydesdale, the event includes a stirring massing of Pipes and Drums, Calling of the Clans, the Clydesdale and Clan class and traditional Scottish caber tossing. There’ll be haggis burgers and a whiskey bar, and Scots are encouraged to attend in their clan kilts!

You can purchase your tickets online, or grab them at the gate.
