This year's lineup will probably be almost the same as last year's and will include a few new ones including Disko.
Is anyone willing to go to this year's show?

I liked the ride erection pics from last year. Like to see some for this year too!
Is anyone allowed to enter the showgrounds during the unpacking? I'd like to take my own pics and post them to Flickr!

Chuck on a hi-vis vest I'm sure you'd be alright, dunno if its anything like here in Sydney. They usually ask who you're working for and what gear they own, as long as you know what you're talking about you're sweet to go in

And does the erection process go from largest to smallest?

Aha, purchasing show tickets before next month as well as carnival cash! That is going to be much easier!
I won't count on any showbags this year as I'm a bit too big for their toys made from cheap chinese plastic! :lol:
Does anyone know what Sky Trail is?

I'm guessing most of the showmen will go directly from Brisbane down to Adelaide, sorry can't give you a itinery or exact date. No there is no biggest to smallest erection process, why would that matter??

And yeh agreed what is Sky Trail?

Great news about No Limit getting on this year; Brisbane's loss is Adelaide's gain I say!

Anyone else taken pics of the unpacking? My father told me that I wasn't wearing a visibility suit yesterday and also told me to refrain from going to the showground while the show is being set up.
