It was a cloudy day for the start of this year's Gympie Show, but the weather didn't deter large crowds of locals attending the opening day.
Organisers say the two-day show has received big numbers of entries across all pavilions and events.
A record number of poultry are exhibited at the show this year, while more than 200 head of cattle are competing in the Droughtmaster Feature Show being held in the Gympie Show's cattle ring.
