We are excited to welcome you all to International Dairy Week 2026, and we’re looking forward to another outstanding year of competition and celebration of the Australian dairy industry we all love.

Each year, it’s the dedication, passion, and professionalism of our cattle exhibitors and event partners that bring this event to life.

We’re pleased to advise that cattle entries for IDW 2026 will open on Friday, 31 October, and close on Monday, 8 December.
We encourage all exhibitors to get their entries in early and join us for what promises to be another exceptional showcase of dairy excellence.
