The Auckland Easter Show (sometimes referred to as the Royal Easter Show or Cola-Cola Easter Show) is a heritage event held annually during Easter in Auckland, New Zealand. It originated in the 19th century and has included agricultural events, art exhibitions, live entertainment, sporting events, carnival rides, a marketplace and circuses.[1] The Easter Show was held at the Epsom Showgrounds in Epsom.

Competitions and awards

The Auckland Easter Show is host to the Wine Awards, New Zealand’s longest-running wine competition, and therefore also one of the most competitive.[2] Also hosted are the Art Awards, New Zealand's largest open art competition.[3]
