Royal Agricultural Society of Western Australia


The Royal Agricultural Society of Western Australia was established 1831 in Western Australia.
It held its first annual agricultural show, the Fair and Cattle Show, at Guildford on 7 November 1834.
The show was moved to the Claremont Showground in 1905, when it became the Perth Royal Show.
In 1907, a range of other agricultural societies merged. Despite the action, separate agricultural societies remain throughout the state.
The RASWA, as it has also been known, has survived substantial change in agriculture and agricultural practices in Western Australia in its history, and was able to celebrate with a history in 2004.
