The Lilydale and Yarra Valley Show is back for its 70th year, celebrating seven decades of tradition, community and fun! This milestone event will take place on Saturday 15 and Sunday 16 November 2025 at the Lilydale Showgrounds (27–29 Market Street, Lilydale) and we’re thrilled to share that the creative talents of Alkira participants will be on full display!
As part of their day programs, participants at Alkira express themselves through art. Exploring a variety of techniques, colours and textures that reflect their individuality and imagination. This year, Alkira artists will be exhibiting their incredible work at the show. Visitors will be able to see a diverse collection of pieces, featuring acrylic and watercolour paintings, mosaics, marker and coloured pencil drawings, and even 3D sculptures.
Whether you’re an art lover, a supporter of local creativity, or simply looking for a great weekend out, we invite you to come along and celebrate the talent and dedication of our artists. Their artworks represent not only artistic skill, but also confidence, joy, and the pride that comes from sharing something meaningful with the wider community.
Beyond the art displays, the show promises something for everyone: animals, arts and crafts, cooking demonstrations, delicious food, rides, attractions, music, fireworks, and showbags. It’s the perfect way to enjoy a weekend filled with community spirit.
