When the showgrounds were established the usage was minimal but over the years this has increased greatly, with many other organisations taking advantage of the area. U.M.H. Association hold many events over the year with up to 900 participants. Tallangatta Show has up to 3000 at their show and the Show Jumping Albury Wodonga have a 3 day event. Girl Guides meet weekly in term. CFA Junior train with T.S.C and Corryong and Mount Beauty Cluster schools. Cricket is played by juniors during the season. Rotary hold their Expo annually with the monies used for scholarships and other courses.

The showgrounds has the same facilities that have outgrown the needs of our community. The rail trail backs onto the showgrounds and we have bikers and horse rider taking advantage of the location. The showgrounds offers the space for healthy activities such as cricket, Guiding, CFA Training teaching volunteering, Horse events and this upgrade would help make it more user friendly . The community has helped with power upgrades and the current Show Committee is constantly doing maintenance to maintain the facilities .

As a new local group "Tallangatta Historic Machinery & Vehicle Club" we are holding our first event at the Showgrounds & hope to make this a annual event. So a new toilet block will be a huge asset!!!

I am a member of Upper Murray Horseman's Association and assist on event day at Tallangatta Showgrounds. We hold about seven 1-3 day events annually at this location. Our events are usually filled within 24 hours with ? 150 competitors plus family mostly coming from NE Victoria. The toilets/facilities are very basic. I am aware that the Showground committee has received numerous complaints about the facilities. Please provide a grant to benefit our community and the families who attend.
