Ekka!! - what's Ekka

It's easier than saying the Royal National Agricultural and Industrial Association of Queensland. It's when the country comes to the city and it's Queensland's largest event of the year.
One of the entrances into the Ekka - a ten day event held every August in Brisbane.
An agricultural produce display put on by one of the local high schools.
A horticultural display organised by the Bromeliad Society of Queensland.
A blacksmithing competition in full swing.
The woodchop - where men from the bush come wielding very sharp, shiny and expensive axes.
