Royal Adelaide Show
Also known as the Royal Adelaide Show, and comes from an agricultural/horticultural background (though is not unique to Adelaide, most cities/towns have one. Its a yearly event occuring in early September, just out of winter. There are rides, activites, horse races, livestock, woodchopping, product competitions like beer, or grains, or honey, baking competitions (including a juniors category of making fairybread), shops, foods, etc. Then at the end of the day, there is bike show on the oval (which is the picture), with a lot of fireworks. Also a big part of going to the show, which is a fairly big event that you go to in friend groups or as a family, is getting showbags, which are bags of lollies and random stuff all put together of well known brands like cadbury, and things from like Harry Potter to Womens Weekly merch, probably discounted - I think this is particularly Australian. You can spend the whole day there, 9am to 11pm.
