The 2020 Federation Show has been cancelled due to the outbreak of COVID-19. We’re so sorry!
Schedule
The schedule for the Federation Show details every class available in the various sections – Homeskills, Handcrafts, Bulbs, as well as the Co-operative Exhibit Section which teams of members of one Institute work on to produce a display on the allocated theme within boards of predetermined dimensions. There are also classes for teenagers, intermediate members and seniors.
You can find the 2021 Federation Show schedule here.
