Tip for those considering it, accommodation is pretty hard to come by in Gunnedah, I would take a camper or just a swag and stop at the showgrounds.

I went many years ago when I lived in Tamworth, and then took my eldest son a few years when we were on the central coast.
Opened his eyes to big machines, cattle and farming. Would go again just for the experience.

I would love to get there some time but it come's at a bad time with my other farm jobs. Do you go to the ANFD with your work? I mostly try and get there for a day out, also much closer than AgQuip.

Mind you i suggest 2 days to look and see,and be prepared for walking about 10-15 kms around as it is BIG. You will see every thing from mowers to harvesters,swags to winnebagos,winches to cranes. It is all for free. Your diet should consist of an Angus steak sandwich for morning tea and a Murray grey steak sandwich for lunch,all with a free complimentry cup of tea or coffee. Entry and parking is free.
As been suggested accomodation is hard to come by,but myswagging at the showground or out at Lake Keepit are good options or for a bit of fun your can stay out back of the Malaney pub in the camp ground and enjoy the pubs hospitality around the fire listening to a bit of live music,this is what we have done the last couple of years.
Now i am depressed that i can't make it this year.
