The RNA is an independent, not-for-profit member based organisation that has freehold title to the iconic Brisbane Showgrounds. Our guiding mission is to celebrate and champion the essential role agriculture plays in the everyday lives of Queenslanders. We do this by showcasing and rewarding the very best of the best in agriculture through our Royal Queensland Show (Ekka) and Royal Queensland Food and Wine Show (RQFWS) competitions. Award-winning produce from these competitions is then celebrated on our Brisbane Showgrounds and Royal International Convention Centre menu. Governed by 21 elected Councillors, the RNA represents more than 4,100 members across Queensland and further afield, many whose families have been involved with us for generations.
