From pioneering farmers to long-serving volunteers and community champions, these people have helped strengthen Western Australia's agricultural industry and create the Show experience enjoyed by generations of visitors.
There are several ways to recognise those who have made a lasting contribution.
Agricultural Hall of Fame
The Agricultural Hall of Fame honours individuals who have made an outstanding contribution to Western Australia's agricultural industries. Recognising excellence, leadership and innovation, inductees have helped shape the future of agriculture through their achievements and lifelong commitment to the sector.
Legend of the Show
The Legend of the Show Award recognises individuals whose exceptional dedication and long-term service have helped shape the Perth Royal Show. Whether behind the scenes or in the spotlight, recipients have played an important role in creating one of Western Australia's most cherished annual events.
Farmer of the Day
Each day of the Perth Royal Show, Farmer of the Day shines a spotlight on a Western Australian farmer, sharing the stories behind the food and fibre that support our communities.
In 2026, the Royal Agricultural Society of WA is proud to celebrate the International Year of the Woman Farmer by recognising outstanding women making a significant contribution to agriculture across Western Australia. The program gives Show visitors the opportunity to meet local farmers, hear their stories and learn more about modern agriculture.
Help us celebrate those making a difference
Recognising the people behind Western Australia's agricultural industry helps preserve their stories, inspire future generations and acknowledge the dedication that continues to strengthen our communities.
Whether through the Agricultural Hall of Fame, Legend of the Show or Farmer of the Day, these programs celebrate the individuals whose contributions deserve to be remembered.
