Ravensthorpe Wildflower Show

Past Event


Its on again.. even bigger & better this year!

The Ravensthorpe Wildflower Show began in 1982 to celebrate and showcase the abundance of floral diversity in the region. A tribute to the rugged and natural beauty of the region, the show continues to inspire amateurs and enthusiasts alike with its depth, breadth and quality of flowers on display.

The Ravensthorpe Wildflower Show will be a vibrant celebration of the amazing flora the Fitzgerald Biosphere of Western Australia has to offer. The show is internationally recognised as one of the best in the world and considered to be the eucalyptus epicentre of the universe. Ravensthorpe Regional Herbarium is open for guided visits.

Here are some of the wonderful events & workshops which will be available to participate in during the Show!
