2025 Show Reps announced

Two lucky Victorian kids are about to enjoy the Melbourne Royal Show like never before, with Charlie Taylor and Lydia Barbar named as the official 2025 Show Reps from more than 450 incredible entries.

For Charlie, the Show is all about two things: adorable animals and motorbikes. He can’t wait to get up close with his favourite furry friends and check out the high-octane action in the arena.

For foodie Lydia, the Show is a delicious adventure — and she’s on a mission to try as many tasty treats on sticks as possible.

As Show Reps, Charlie and Lydia will enjoy exclusive behind-the-scenes access, preview the year’s showbags and rides, meet the animals, appear on TV, and take part in official events including the Show’s media launch. They’ll each receive a prize pack valued at more than $2500 and experience this iconic Victorian event in a way very few ever can.

The Melbourne Royal Show runs from 25 September to 5 October at Melbourne Showgrounds.
