📢 Important Update – Hack Weekend Cancelled

It is with great disappointment that we announce the Pittsworth Hack Weekend, scheduled for Saturday 23rd & Sunday 24th August 2025, has been cancelled due to confirmed EHV-1 cases in the Toowoomba region.

​

The health and safety of all horses, riders, and the wider equine community remains our top priority. This decision has been made in consultation with relevant authorities to help prevent any further spread of the virus.

​

We know this will be disappointing for our exhibitors and supporters, and we sincerely thank you for your understanding and cooperation during this time.

​

The Beer & Smoked Meats Night will still go ahead as planned on Saturday evening. If you’re in the area, we’d love for you to come along, enjoy a fantastic evening, and support our Showgirls and Rural Ambassadors.

​

Thank you for your continued support of the Pittsworth Show Society.
