✨ 2026 Burnett Sub-Chamber Finals ✨

Mount Perry was proud to host the 2026 Burnett Sub-Chamber competition and presentation evening yesterday.

After a close competition between seven finalists from across the region, Bundaberg Show Office Showgirl Vanessa Beavan was named this year's winner, and Gin Gin Show Society Showgirl Moselle Findlay named runner up.

The Rural Ambassador category featured two finalists, with Biggenden Show Society representative Holly Ahern named as the winner and Gin Gin Show Society representative Tayla Rackemann as runner up.

Nancy Zipf from Mundubbera Show Society produced this year's best Rich Dark Fruitcake, and Dakoda Kelly from Monto & District Show won first place in the Next Generation ANZAC Biscuit competition.

Congratulations to all who took part - it was wonderful to see the high standard of entrants taking part in this year's competitions, and best of luck to our winners who will now progress to represent Burnett at the State Finals.

Thank you to our local families, groups and businesses who supported the event.

🌟 Mount Perry Show Society is proud to host the 2026 Burnett Sub-Chamber Finals event in June, where the Burnett representatives for the 2026 Queensland Country Life Showgirl Awards and the Queensland Rural Ambassador Awards will be announced. 🌟

The Queensland Country Life Showgirl Awards celebrate young women who are passionate about agricultural shows and the communities behind them. It’s not about stage presence. It’s about leadership, connection, and becoming an ambassador for the show movement across Queensland 🤝

From local shows to Sub-Chamber judging, and ultimately the State Final at the Ekka, the program creates opportunities to grow confidence, build networks, and share the stories that make our shows unique ✨
Many past entrants speak about the friendships formed, the skills gained, and the deeper understanding of what agricultural shows mean to regional communities. It’s a pathway that opens doors and strengthens the future of our movement 🌻

Nominations are through your local show - get in touch about when to nominate 📣

If you know someone aged 18 to 28 who represents the spirit of community, agriculture, and service, this is the moment to encourage them forward. Sometimes all it takes is someone saying, “You should give this a go.” 💬
We’d love to see representatives from across Queensland stepping into this opportunity.

To celebrate Tori's contribution, we are hosting afternoon tea at the Federal Inn on Saturday 18 April at 2.00pm. If you would like to join us, please RSVP to [email protected].
