The show will be on Saturday.
Secretary Rebecca Sluggett said there would be a range of new features this year.
“For the first time we have the Wimmera Axemen's Association coming to do demonstrations,” she said.
“The 3rd Light Horse Regiment Naracoorte Troop will return with demonstrations that will include crowd participation.”
Mrs Sluggett said despite poor weather leading up to the show, the horse events would go ahead.
The show will also feature a ute and classic car competition and a tiny tots competition.
Mrs Sluggett said another new activity would be free laser tag.
“We always had a gap in activities for teenagers, but now we will have laster tag,” she said.
“The West Wimmera Shire Council helped us out with funding for that.”
Visitors to the show can also watch the AFL grand final on big screens.
“The bar will be open, there will be food – people can watch the grand final while the children are entertained, what could be better? Mrs Sluggett said.
“We think this will be one of the best shows yet.”
Mrs Sluggett said she hoped the weather would be nice for the event.
