Schedules and Forms

Due to the current Avian Influenza outbreak in Victoria, we have made the difficult decision to postpone the Melbourne Royal Poultry Competition for 2024. This decision is based on guidance from Agriculture Victoria in consultation with the Victorian Poultry Fanciers Association, and our commitment to prioritising the health and safety of the Victorian poultry industry and our exhibitors. We greatly appreciate your understanding and continued support. We look forward to welcoming you back when the Melbourne Royal Poultry Competition recommences in the future.  

In a show of camaraderie between competitions, the Art, Craft, and Cookery competition has graciously offered to incorporate the poultry art classes into their event this year. If you are still interested in participating in the poultry art classes, you can enter through the Art, Craft, and Cookery competition.
