The Royal Melbourne Show
November 2nd, 2009 | 
Author: The city of Melbourne is known for their appreciation for art, food, music and celebration. Each year an incredibly large show takes place during one week in September. This past extravaganza took place on the 17-27, and included all aspects of life in Melbourne. 5 star hotels were booked full, not only with people traveling to the city to attend the show, but with the hundreds of vendors from around the world who were involved in this huge event. That event was the Royal Melbourne Show held at the Grand Pavilion. This is one of the most popular commercial venues in the city, and for that week it was filled with all sorts of products to buy, and food and wine to taste and enjoy.
This is located in downtown Melbourne close to the main boulevard and everyone in attendance was able to experience the best of the best. The groceries and the produce available was of the highest quality of everything from dairy products to the beef industry, wine, herbs, and fruits and vegetables. Cooking demonstrations were given by some of the top chefs in the world, and of course samples were given out, making everyone in the theater very happy to say the least. And that’s not all, there was an exhibit on Home and Living that offered suggestions to people on subjects such as home improvement ideas, gardening tools and advice, crafts, and any other gadget one would use around the house. This was a great exhibit for anyone who loves do it yourself home repairs and remodeling.
The Royal Champion dog show took place and there were vendors selling anything in the world one may wish to buy their pets. The market show really had it all, from centers just for children, to book vendors and those selling herbs for Chinese healing techniques. The arts and crafts exhibits at the Art, Craft and Cookery pavilion is one of the longest running participants in the Royal Melbourne show, participating for more the one hundred years. Here one could find not only art to buy, but classes to take and supplies to purchase. This is one of the largest, all encompassing trade shows in the world, and is well worth making a trip to Melbourne each September.
