Through dynamic and inclusive events, ATAS showcases local talent, fosters community spirit, and champions sustainable agricultural practices.

These events are made possible through the unwavering support of our dedicated volunteers, local businesses, industry partners, community organizations, and the people of the Atherton Tablelands. On occasion, our committee and volunteers also introduce events that are relevant to the community and align with our mission, vision, and values.

Commonly known as the Atherton Show Society, ATAS ensures that each of its events has a distinctive look and feel while remaining true to our core principles.
