Positively Woodville and its members are proposing a unique, rural-themed wrap-up for Woodville’s 150th anniversary celebrations:

“150 Years of Farming and Motor Transport Show”

To be held alongside the 21st Annual First in the World Fly-In with an expected 50 aircraft (weather permitting).


This event is proposed for January 2026 and plans to feature:

  • Period Costume Fashion Parade/Competition

  • Bouncy Castle for the kids

  • Food Truck Court

  • Shearing Demonstrations

  • Entertainment and much more!


WE NEED LOCAL HANDS ON DECK!

To make this happen, we need genuine helpers—lots of them!
