Queensland's Ekka has been cancelled for 2021.

The decision was made to defer the competition in the best interest of human health.

Queensland Health has advised the RNA to pause the Ekka for 24 hours due to the announcement.

Large crowds of stud and commercial breeders began streaming into the sale hours before.

The Taree Show will make its comeback in October after pushing through one of the most tumultuous storylines Mother Nature could have ever written.

The stud sold all 31 bulls for an impressive new average price.

The Peake family never dreamt of the result they achieved on Thursday.

The stud attracted 73 registered bidders to the Currabubula property on Wednesday.

The stats are in and this year's Sire Shootout proved the biggest yet.
