00:00When you think about the Royal Adelaide Show, a few key things come to mind.
00:07I think the rides and also the shopping centre.
00:11Definitely, definitely a dagger dog, yeah.
00:13Show bags, competitions and carnival rides, the show is back with all its traditions.
00:18And despite the current cost of living pressures, it's expected to attract hundreds of thousands of people.
00:25We say about one in every three South Australians come to the show,
00:28which makes it the largest show in Australia on a per capita basis.
00:31Today's unfavourable weather wasn't enough to deter showgoers with more rain forecast over the next week.
00:38We come rain, hail or shine.
00:40And if it's raining, that's when we go inside and look at the halls,
00:44otherwise we'll be out around looking at everything else.
00:46In the worst case scenario, we'll have to look at things like the fireworks,
00:50but that's a very rare occurrence that we have to do anything like that.
00:53We're confident that we're going to help put on a great show regardless of the weather.
00:57The show has always brought the best of the country here to the city
01:01and organisers hope that being able to get up close with these little guys
01:05will help inspire the next generation of farmers.
01:08Obviously a few kids in the city that probably don't see what we see on most days,
01:13so it's definitely a really good thing to really promote it
01:17and it's obviously another career option for anyone interested later on in life.
01:22And the farmers might have recruited a few young ones already.
01:26Just petting the animals and seeing them because they're really cute.
01:29The fun and excitement at the showgrounds will continue right up to next Sunday.
