The Main Arena
With over 101 hectares of developed land, the Event’s Centre has many and varied open spaces great for a variety of uses.
The jewel in the crown is undoubtedly the Main Arena, a massive oval in the centre of the grounds.
From hundreds of horses to hundreds of horsepower, the Main Arena is a picturesque yet highly functional open air, day and night area.

- With seating in the main arena’s grandstand for over 1100 people plus thousands more on the natural amphitheatre walls of the oval, even the largest events can be handled.
- The main arena features full lighting around it ensuring that even at night everything is in full illumination.
