EKKA FAVES Strawberry Sundaes WHERE: Around grounds
Ekka’s iconic Strawberry Sundaes bring the taste of tradition in every cone! Featuring Lick strawberry ice cream, layered with fresh strawberries and luscious cream, the Strawberry Sundae is the ultimate show indulgence. This year, grab your sweet treat at our mega outlet at the corner of Gregory Terrace and King Street or four other stands spread across the grounds including Gregory Terrace, Gourmet Plaza, B105 Sideshow Alley and Kids Carnival. As a not for profit, the RNA will reinvest the money raised from the strawberry sundaes back into the Ekka, including our vital agricultural education programs. These iconic sundaes have been bringing smiles to generations since the 1950s and we’re expecting to serve more than 180,000 of them over the nine days.
