WHY SHOULD I EXHIBIT AT MUDGEE SMALL FARM FIELD DAYS?
The Mudgee Small Farm Field Days (MSFFD) is a two-day, annual event that has been running for over 40 years and attracts approximately 20,000 attendees per year.
MSFFD began in 1977 with the aim to educate small land holders in the region. The event has grown to include several other areas of interest including sustainable living, gardening, caravan and camping, clothing and footwear, tools and machinery, educational and health services, food and wine. As well as commercial stalls, there are kids activities, live music and more entertainment. Something to suit the whole family!
MSFFD pride ourselves on the range of free talks and demonstrations on offer. There are Livestock and Horse Demonstrations, Yard Dog Trials, Agronomy Plots, Horticulture and Butchery Demo’s, Landcare Lecture Series, a Festival of Yesteryear, as well as a wide variety of talks and demos on exhibitors sites.
Our aim is to promote innovation and sustainability in agriculture and rural living.
Our mission is to inform, educate and connect rural people with information and solution providers.
RETURNING EXHIBITORS – DID YOU EXHIBIT IN 2025?
Returning exhibitors do NOT need to submit the application form, you can simply reply to our email in February and we will re-book your site.
The deadline for applications from exhibitors who exhibited in 2025, and wish to be allocated the same site again, is 28 February 2026. You must advise MSFFD of your intention to exhibit by this date. If no application has been received by this date, the site you were allocated in 2025 may not be available.
NEW EXHIBITORS
If you did not exhibit at the 2025 MSFFD, you will need to submit an application. Online bookings are preferred, go to www.mudgeefielddays.com.au/book to apply. If you’ve exhibited before or we’ve invited you to attend, you will already have a Customer profile in the booking system. Contact us with any log in issues.
Allocations of sites for new exhibitors will be made in chronological order from the application date and will not commence until after 1st April. If you would a like a particular site (eg corner) we suggest booking early.
Payment from ALL exhibitors must be received in full by 30th April 2026.
If payment isn’t received by this date, your booking may be cancelled.
If your application is accepted after this date your account must be paid in full to secure your site.
Sites are not confirmed until full payment has been received.
Multiple site bookings attract a 10% discount on additional sites (discount on cheaper site).
Site allocations will be at the sole discretion of MSFFD and can be changed at any time. MSFFD will endeavour to accommodate the requests of all exhibitors.
MSFFD reserve the right to refuse any application for any reason.
FOOD & COFFEE VENDORS
Exhibitors are not permitted to sell or provide food or coffee from their sites without MSFFD authorisation.
Information and application forms for coffee and catering are different to general exhibitors. Coffee and food vendors are required to tender for site positions. Please see the appropriate section for more details.
EXHIBITOR ACCESS:
EXHIBITOR PASSES / WRISTBANDS
Exhibitor (personnel) passes are allocated according to site type and size, as per the application form. If you require extra passes, they are available for exhibitors to purchase at a discount rate ($20 for a 2 day pass) prior to the event via the MSFFD office or on your application form.
Exhibitor packs (including passes) are to be collected from the office when you arrive on the set-up days, prior to proceeding to your site.
Please have your wristbands ON, ready to show at the gate each morning. If you do not have your wristband on, it causes a queue of vehicles and delays for everybody to get on site.
No exhibitor passes available for purchase on event days. If you don’t have adequate passes or have lost them, you will need to wait until 8:30am and pay for entry via the public entry gates.
If you do not think you will arrive by 6pm Thursday, you need to inform us so we can let you know how to collect your passes.
You may be required to show your wristband and car pass on pack-up days. Please ensure you have these available.
CAR PARKING
There is only ONE exhibitor entrance this year, via Ulan Rd.
ULAN RD – ULAN RD Exhibitor AND Public car park
HENRY LAWSON DR – HLD Public car park
CAR PASSES & ACCESS
There is ONE type of VEHICLE PASS. This pass allows access to the exhibitor car parks as well as the exhibition area. No extra vehicle passes are available for purchase due to limited car parking spaces. There is plenty of free parking in the public car parks.
Vehicle passes MUST be displayed on your rear view mirror AT ALL TIMES.
A vehicle pass does not mean automatic entry to the field days – exhibitor passes/wristbands must still be presented at the gate. NO PASS = NO ENTRY
The site will be open to exhibitors at 6am Friday morning and 6:30am Saturday morning. Any vehicles taken onto the exhibition area must be placed ENTIRELY on the exhibitor’s site or removed to the car park by 8am. Vehicles will be allowed back on site from 4:30pm Friday and Saturday. The site will close at 6pm Friday and 7pm Saturday. The entry gates to exhibitor car parks will be locked at 8am in the interest of safety and will not reopen until 4:30pm. Vehicles that do not fit within your site, or that you may wish to move prior to 4:30pm, need to be parked in a car park. MSFFD reserves the right to remove vehicles, for safety or other purposes, from anywhere on the site. Vehicles are not to be parked ANYWHERE else in the exhibition area.
No truck access on Friday morning. All large items must be on site by 6pm Thursday.
Failure to comply with these conditions may result in your vehicle pass being forfeited and you risk not being invited back to future events. Please ensure all staff are advised of these restrictions.
Vehicles are NOT permitted to drive on site from 8am-4:30pm. If you abuse it, you’ll lose it.
NO electronic vehicles are permitted at the event, eg e-bikes or e-scooters
ESSENTIAL INFORMATION FOR EXHIBITORS (Alphabetical order)
ACCOMMODATION
We will again be trialling exhibitors camping on site in 2026. (see Camping for more info)
Contact Mudgee Tourist Information Centre for other accommodation options on (02) 6372 1020.
ADVERTISING
The official program will be published by The Land. This is distributed prior to the field days through The Land newspaper and at the gates during the event. The program also features the site map and includes an alphabetical and categorical listing of all exhibitors registered at the time of deadline (28th May TBC).
We suggest you include your site number in any advertising, please confirm this with MSFFD.
If you receive any other invitations via mail, email or fax for official guides, event programs or attendees lists etc please let us know and, if they are requesting money, report them to the Department of Fair Trading.
AIRSTRIP
Due to the airstrip being directly adjacent to the site, no aerial exhibits such as drones are permitted. Please also be mindful of any other materials that may pose a threat to the airport, such as balloons or tall exhibits.
ALLOCATION OF SITES
Sites are held for previous years site holders up until 28 February. Following that date, vacant sites are available to be allocated to any exhibitor at the discretion of the organisers of MSFFD. Allocations from new exhibitors will not commence until after 1st April.
MSFFD has the right to allocate sites as it determines. We will do our best to accommodate the requests of all exhibitors. Application for a site does not guarantee your acceptance, whether you’re a returning or new exhibitor. MSFFD reserves the right to accept or refuse any application for any reason.
Every effort is made to mark out sites accurately, but if there is confusion regarding the size of your site contact the office PRIOR to setting up as mistakes can happen.
Please ensure that the site size you have selected will accommodate your exhibit. Eg: DO NOT select a site with a 6 metre front and expect to erect a tent with a 7 metre front. You will be required to alter/move your exhibit to fit within your site boundaries. You need to be able to set up your exhibit without driving on neighbouring sites, eg if you have a side-opening trailer, you need to manoeuvre it on your own site.
BE aware that due to the pizza shape of the exhibition area, sites are not perfectly rectangle, see application form for more accurate sizing or call us to discuss your specific site dimensions.
ATMs & BANKING
There will be ATM’s on site in locations to be shown on the site map.
EFTPOS is available on the public admission gates. We encourage exhibitors to have personal EFTPOS terminals available for the public to use. See wi-fi for more information.
MSFFD do not accept cash at the gates but we encourage exhibitors to accept cash in case the electronic payment options become affected.
BARK CHIP
MSFFD do not allow bark chip to be used on sites as it harms the grass. AREC is used for many other activities throughout the year and the grassed areas are to be preserved for these. If you use bark chip you may be charged a clean up fee to remove any remaining debris.
Straw is suitable for display and bedding purposes and can be purchased for $20/bale prior to event.
BIOSECURITY – COME CLEAN, GO CLEAN
Dirty vehicles, machinery and equipment carry diseases, pests and weeds. Please wash down all equipment prior to arriving at the event to prevent transporting unwanted pests, diseases and weeds to our site.
CAMPING
MSFFD are trialling exhibitors camping on site to assist exhibitors with cost effective accommodation or where other accommodation becomes limited.
Camping can be booked with your application at $150 per person. Thursday, Friday & Saturday nights only. Limited sites, first in first served. Bookings must be received by 30th May unless sold-out prior.
Camping will be in a designated area, NOT in the exhibition area. NO access to the exhibition area outside of exhibitor opening times. Security will be on site and anyone found without appropriate wristband or disobeying camping rules will be escorted off site. No antisocial behaviour will be accepted.
No power or water at individual sites. Fires permitted in off-ground fire drums only with prior approval. Generators must be turned off by 10pm. Campers may go out for dinner, but must be back on site by 10pm.

DEMONSTRATIONS
MSFFD encourage demonstrations on your site as it engages the visiting public.
Please be aware of issues with dust, noise and safety during these demonstrations and be courteous to nearby site holders. MSFFD has the right to refuse or stop any demonstration. Aerial or high-risk demonstrations will not be permitted.
Please ensure any demonstrations are covered under your Safety Management Plan and covered by your Public Liability Insurance.
DISPLAY MATERIAL AND EXHIBITS
Exhibitors are encouraged to make their sites look appealing and engaging. Exhibitors are responsible for making sure all materials are secured safely and do not disturb other exhibitors or the public.
Display materials are to be displayed on your site ONLY, not anywhere else (including banners or sign boards etc). MSFFD reserves the right to remove any exhibit or item for any reason, including offensive materials or items not located wholly within your site. Please do NOT protrude into walkways as this impacts the safety evacuation procedures.
Products: It is your responsibility to display your products in a safe and legal way. Any products that may be deemed dangerous or not for sale to minors etc, should be displayed appropriately.
Knives MUST be displayed behind appropriate display cases or you will be asked to leave.
Please ensure all products are legal in NSW. We are aware some exhibitors travel between states and there are different laws in each. This will be monitored by NSW Police at the event.
Exhibitors are required to have the appropriate licenses and qualifications to cover any sales or advice offered at the event, including but not limited to alcohol, food etc.
DOGS/PETS
NO DOGS/PETS ARE ALLOWED on site, except for dogs who are competing in the yard dog trials or demonstrations, and guide/medical aid dogs with identification. MSFFD reserves the right to ask you to leave the grounds if you have a pet in your possession. This is for the safety of everyone at the event.
This applies to exhibitors as well as visitors. Please don’t ask to bring your pet.
ELECTRICITY
Electricity is limited and NOT included in the site price. If you wish to use electricity, you must book and pay for it PRIOR to the event. Electricity can be used for EFTPOS, TV’s, computers etc, but NOT for electric heating items (eg jugs and heaters) as they may overload the system. Gas heaters are allowed with appropriate safety measures.
There are 15amp power outlets available to most sites. Power outlets are located within 30 metres of most sites. It is the exhibitor’s responsibility to provide a single length heavy duty/industrial lead to be used from the power outlet to the exhibitor’s location.
All leads and electrical equipment are required to have current “test and tag” certification. In the interests of safety, MSFFD reserves the right to confiscate any electrical equipment or leads that do not meet “Test & Tag” requirements. MSFFD will not be liable for any damage to your stock/equipment as a result of electrical equipment and leads not meeting requirements.
There will be an electrician on site to monitor electricity connections. If your leads are not tested and tagged, the electrician has the right to confiscate them or charge a fee to test and tag.
Placement of some exhibits may be governed by power requirements. If you are not sure of your requirements, please contact your electrician. If your power requirements are not detailed on your application and they exceed those provided, you may incur extra charges for electricity supply or be required to remove that connection.
The MSFFD power grid is connected to public supply and therefore can be affected by outside influences. All exhibitors must supply their own surge protection equipment and regularly save any computer data that may be affected by loss of power.
EMERGENCIES & FIRST AID
In the event of a large-scale emergency, please contact 000 first, then the MSFFD office on 02 6372 3899.
In the event of a large scale emergency, communications will be provided over the Public Address System.
Fire protection and other emergency services will be located on site during opening hours of the event.
First Aid services will be at a location shown on the site map for any minor injuries or illnesses.
EQUIPMENT HIRE
Tents, marquees and equipment such as tables, chairs and partitions must be ordered through hire companies (at the expense of the exhibitor) prior to the event. We do not have a preferred supplier.
NO sites have tables, chairs, partitions etc included in their site fees. There is NO “shell scheme” included with the indoor sites. You need to arrange for this equipment yourself.
All Equipment must fit entirely within your site, not on your boundaries. If you book a 10m site, please do not book a 10m marquee as there may be posts or pegs that protrude into your neighbours site.
Also remember that the outdoor sites are a pizza shape. A Large site is approximately 10m wide but will be a different width at the front to the back, not a perfect rectangle. It may be slightly less than 10m at one end of the site and more at the other. Please check your individual site dimensions with the office if required.
FORKLIFTS
Forklifts and telehandlers are provided on Set-up days, Saturday evening and Pack-up days ONLY. Bookings are taken on a first in first serve basis upon arrival, no bookings can be made prior to arrival.

Outside these dates, you will need to organise your own loading and unloading equipment, which can only take place with prior arrangement and at MSFFD’s discretion.
FIRES
The lighting of fires is permitted on sites ONLY with prior consent from MSFFD. Fires must be contained within a fire drum and must not scorch the grass or leave any remnants behind (eg nails from pallets). A clean up fee will be charged if damage does occur.

Any exhibitor who chooses not to have this insurance will not be allocated a site. If you are a small business that does not have Public Liability Insurance, discuss “Market Stall” type insurance with your insurer.
We require a Certificate of Currency for Public Liability insurance that covers the event days. If your current certificate covers the event days, please include it with your application. If it expires prior to the event, please notify us of the renewal date and then provide it to us at your earliest convenience once renewed.

Raffles, competitions or “games of chance” are limited at the event to avoid overwhelming or annoying the public. They are only permitted on sites with the consent of MSFFD.

RUBBISH
There are wheelie bins around the site and bulk waste (skip) bins. All rubbish must be placed in or at the bins for collection.
We encourage exhibitors to recycle where possible. Cardboard boxes MUST be flattened and placed in the cardboard collection bays around the site, NOT in skip bins as they are only emptied once daily.
If you have any hazardous materials for disposal, it is your responsibility to do so appropriately.
Any rubbish left on your site will incur a disposal fee.
SAFETY * NEW *
To comply with the Work Health and Safety Act, each exhibitor is responsible for the creation and maintenance of a safe environment for both their workers and visitors. Your exhibition area is an extension of your workplace and must be treated as such.
The safety of exhibitors, volunteers and visitors must be of utmost consideration at all times. Anyone conducting themselves in a dangerous manner will be asked to leave immediately. Please be aware of the safety of others when demonstrating, moving or using machines or implements. Your exhibit area is an extension of your workplace.
When setting up, look for trip hazards with your tents and other objects on your site. Take care with any sharp hooks, wire, metal or other parts of your displays that may cause a safety issue. Your power leads must be tested and in a safe condition. Don’t forget that children and older people make up part of the audience and your site safety considerations should reflect this.
You are responsible for safety on your site.
A Safety Management Plan is required from every exhibitor. This is due by the 15th May 2026 and you will not be permitted to set up until it is received.
Caution: Underground services
Exhibitors and contractors beware: The site has extensive underground power and water. Please check with MSFFD management before driving posts or large tent pegs into the ground. Most underground cables will be marked on the ground, however, please check prior to ANY works being undertaken.
Any driving of posts/pegs will be at your own risk and you assume all liability for any injury, death or property damage (and repair costs) if you have not had prior permission from MSFFD.
SECURITY
A security firm is employed to guard THE SITE during the event. More information provided to exhibitors.
Exhibitors are required to take sensible precautions with their products or other items when leaving their site unattended. As always, you should have suitable insurance cover for your property. MSFFD will not be held liable for any loss or damage to exhibitors property whilst on site.
Police are also based on site during opening hours on event days, located down from the MSFFD office.
If you become aware of any incidents, please inform the office on 02 6372 3899.
SETTING UP AND DISMANTLING SITES
The site is available for set-up from 8am-6pm Wednesday 8th & Thursday 9th July 2026 and pack-up is 4:30pm-7pm Saturday 11th, 9am–4pm Sunday 12th & Monday 13th July 2026.
Free unloading/loading facilities (eg forklifts) will be available during this time ONLY. More information sent to exhibitors prior to the event.
Please limit the number of vehicles on site during set-up to alleviate congestion on internal roads.
No trucks are permitted access Friday morning, all large items must be on site by 6pm Thursday.
All items must be removed by Friday 24th July 2026 or AREC will take possession of these items and a demurrage or removal fee may apply.
STRAW BALES
Small square straw bales for display purposes or bedding are available for purchase ($20/bale) and can be ordered with your booking. They will be placed on your site on Thursday 9th July and remain your responsibility after this. If you don’t want to take them at the end of the event, please leave them stacked near the front of your site for collection.
SUB-LETTING OF SITES
NO Exhibitors shall assign, lease, sub-lease, on-sell or part with the possession of the whole or part of their site without prior written application to MSFFD management.
Only displays that have a genuine company link with an exhibitor can be shown on their stand. This means that unless an exhibitor owns, sells or distributes a particular line of product (or service) on a normal, continuing year-long basis from the principal business house, it cannot be displayed.
TELEPHONE/INTERNET/WI-FI
Most mobile phone providers have coverage at the field days site in regular times. However, please consider that high population density over the event days will affect speed and availability.
We have installed NBN Fibre, Starlink and extensive wi-fi boosters for exhibitors to operate Point-of-Sale devices and are constantly trying to improve wi-fi/coverage for exhibitors. The sheer volume of people on site makes this a difficult task so please be patient and considerate.
Please do not use the wi-fi for anything other than POS or it will affect speed and availability for everyone.
More information provided to exhibitors closer to the event.
WATER
Town water is available at various locations on site and is only available when organised in advance. It is primarily available to caterers or livestock exhibitors. If you will require water, please ask when booking as it may affect suitable site locations. Do not connect to a tap unless prior approval has been given.
Large quantities of water may incur an additional fee, such as filling display tanks.
A wash bay is available for washing down vehicles, please ask staff for directions. No vehicles/machinery are to be washed on your site as puddles may negatively affect neighbouring sites and create a safety hazard for the public.
WEATHER
MSFFD is an outdoor, all-weather event and is staged regardless of the weather (excepting extreme weather events).
In wet weather, we make every effort to ensure site access. Internal roads are compacted, generally hold up well in wet weather and have gutters to direct the water flow. Do NOT clog the gutters with straw or anything else as this amplifies the water logging issue. Contact MSFFD office with any safety concerns.
Take care not to disrupt the ground/surface of your site during set up, particularly during wet weather. Any damage to the ground can cause public safety issues (eg uneven surfaces), which are your responsibility, and may lead to costs associated with repairs.
It is your responsibility to make sure your tents/exhibits are secure. Please ensure unsecured items are placed inside tents or tied down at the end of each day in the case of bad weather overnight.
We hope you find value in Exhibiting with us.
We look forward to working with you to make the event a great success!
MSFFD Team 😊
