Gates will open on Friday afternoon for an evening of fun, laughter, food, rides, entertainment and much more.
On Saturday there will be events galore from the show jumping, pavilion competitions, farmers challenge, ring events, sideshow alley, a quick shear contest and much more.
Organisers have spent most of their week at the Leeton Showground getting everything in order and prepped before the gates open.
Leeton Show Society secretary Janne Skewes was hopeful the community would come out in droves to support the event.

"We've really tried to make sure there is something for everyone, as well as bringing it back to being a real agricultural show," she said.
"What I love about the show is seeing the smiles on everyone's faces and the fact it's such a great family event."
