The Royal Agricultural Society is pleased to announce the return of the Perth Royal Show Lotterywest Inclusive Access Program in 2025, welcoming those who might face barriers to entry due to cultural, accessibility, financial or other reasons, to enjoy the magic of Show. 

This year, we are moving to a new EOI process to distribute tickets, ensuring they reach the people who need them most.  

We welcome non-profit community support organisations across Western Australia to apply for an allocation of complimentary general entry Show tickets to distribute to their members and clients. 

RASWA has adapted the program to ensure participation is offered to as many qualifying community groups and support organisations in Western Australia as possible. Please note that tickets will only be available to applicants that meet defined criteria and submit their application on time. The quantity of tickets allocated to each group will depend on overall demand. 

Animal Nursery  

We know that crowds and noise at the Show can be overwhelming for some people, particularly in our popular Animal Nursery. Service organisations supporting children and families living with disability will also be invited to apply for smaller allocation of tickets providing exclusive early morning access to the Showground one hour before opening, to enjoy the Animal Nursery without the crowds. 

Eligibility Criteria

Tickets will be distributed to ensure fair and equitable access for organisations across the following sectors: 

• Regional Agricultural Societies 

• Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Community Groups 

• First Nations Organisations 

• Disability Support Services (including family/children and adult support) 

• Youth, Family, and Women’s Support Services 

Applications will be assessed based on: 

• The number of applicants within each of the nominated community sectors 

• The number of individuals supported by each organisation 

• The uptake of awarded tickets by participating organisations in previous years

The program opens on 1 August 2025. Check back here to find answers to frequently asked questions, and to submit your application.
