Council has received a request, and intends to make an application to NSW Industrial Relations, for the proclamation of a partial public holiday on Friday 16 February 2024 and Friday 14 February 2025 for the first day of the Kangaroo Valley Show.
The proposed partial public holidays are Friday 16 February 2024 and Friday 14 February 2025, between the hours of 9:00am to 5:00pm, for the first day of the Kangaroo Valley Show.
It is proposed the partial public holiday will cover the localities of Kangaroo Valley, Upper Kangaroo Valley and Barrengarry within the Shoalhaven City Council area, as highlighted in the map below.
Noting the terminology of the description has changed from previous years (being over that part of the county of Camden, the Parish of Cambewarra and those portions of the Parishes of Burrawang, Bugong, Yarrawa and Wallawa, situated in the City of Shoalhaven), the area for the proposed partial public holiday remains the same.
Written submissions were invited regarding this proposal. Submissions closed on Friday 6 October 2023.
