Main Arena

The Main Arena presented by Channel 9 is the
heart of the Ipswich Show, presenting a
jam-packed entertainment program across the
three days.
Prestigious equestrian events are held
daily including showjumping, dressage and
showing. Lunchtime entertainment including
Hot Wheels Stunt Team and Airtime FMX will
delight visitors daily.
EVENING PROGRAM
Commencing at 6:00 pm on Friday and Saturday
and 4:00 pm on Sunday.
The Main Arena comes alive each night with the
largest program Ipswich Show has ever held.
Featuring an action packed spectacle, the public
will journey back in time as we welcome death
defying stunts as shows gone by, vintage
speedway cars, dazzling acrobatic displays,
stunt bikes, the heart-stirring drama of the
stockman’s ride, mechanical madness and a
spectacular. Featuring:
Rooftop Express Arena Spectacular
This first-class arena show features world first
stunts, true blue Australian comedy,
awe-inspiring horsemanship, soaring voices and
moments shared with that many horses it will
make your heart swell. This quintessential
Aussie outback experience will get hearts racing
and a show the whole family will love.
Human Cannonball
Meet Australia’s only human cannonball. Daredevil
Warren Brophy will pack himself into the tight
confines of a huge cannon before being launched 40
metres into the air, at 6Gs of force, traveling at 60
kilometres per hour to a safety net on the other side
of the Main Arena.
This performance has a long history with roots in
old-time circuses and agricultural shows across
Australia, but the inner workings of the cannon remain
an “industry secret”.
Airtime FMX
The Airtime Freestyle Motocross Team push the
limits on what is possible, and their
action-packed show will have you on the edge of
your seat from start to finish! Launching
motorcycles 15m into the air while performing
some of the most death-defying stunts, it’s
an incredible family friendly show for all ages,
and one not to be missed!
High Wire Motorcycle
Extreme motorcycle and trapeze stunts performed
high above the ground. Cheer on the daredevil
stunt team as they perform aerial handlebar
handstands, aerial toe hangs and the 360
Motorcycle Flip 50 feet above the ground on a
long steel cable.
Wheel of Steel
The Wheel of Steel is an 800-kilogram steel
pendulum reaching a dizzying 12 metres in
height. With no safety nets or wires, our daring
stuntman will perform acrobatics, skip, and even
walk blindfolded, all while maintaining his
balance atop the rotating cage. It’s truly a
marvel to witness and an edge-of-your-seat
experience.
Monster Truck
Get ready for massive jumps, roaring engines and an
explosion of excitement as you watch the
heart-stopping action only a Monster Truck can
deliver. Keeping fans on the edge of their seats with
car-crushing destruction you don’t want to miss this
1500-horsepower, methanol-breathing monster truck.
Fireworks Spectacular presented by Kambu
Health
Dancing across the evening sky with a dazzling
explosion of colour and light, accompanied by the
stereophonic sounds of a pumping soundtrack, this
magical show entertains both young and old.
