This week, fifty children and their families from The Children’s Hospital at Westmead, Sydney Children’s Hospital, Randwick and those supported by Kids With Cancer Foundation, were given the very important job of ‘official showbag testers’ for the 2026 Sydney Royal Easter Show.

With farmyard animal encounters, adorable puppies, face painting, balloon twisting, entertainment, food and of course, 418 showbags to explore, they were given a sneak peek of what showgoers can expect!

This year’s range combines nostalgic favourites with exciting new releases. With prices ranging from just $5 to $38 – and 88 options under $10 – there’s a Sydney Royal Easter Show Showbag to suit every person and budget.
