The annual Busselton Agriculture Show’s 160th anniversary event has been postponed until 2021.

Show president Wally Lord said the decision was made late last week to cancel the show due to the risk of a second wave of COVID-19 in WA.

“We’re obviously very upset about it but we think it’s the right thing to do,” he said.

The BAS will return next year with the help of community volunteers.
