Morobe Show

The Morobe Show originally staged as an Agricultural show has now gained popularity and has gone into venturing with cultural displays. This has boosted the Morobe show with the number of participants, i.e. the cultural groups and the flow of international visitors.

 

As Papua New Guinea boasts it's unique cultural heritage and traditions, Morobe Show is no exception in displaying this. This is a combination of Agricultural and Cultural display and is the last show of all shows in the country in a year.

There are 3 distinct groups of people in Morobe Province as Lae being their capital city. These three distinct groups are the coastal people, mountain people and islanders.

The fiercest are the Kukuku people who live in the mountains. They are fierce fighters and are great warriors. The Aseki people also know for the smoked bodies and the Sisasi (Islanders) are most famous for their tradition. All these tribes or groups of people will be participating at the show.

Papua New Guinea's 80 percentage of the population live on subsistence farming and this is displayed at the Morobe show. People from all over the country gather to display their crops and methods of cultivation and also to display their cultural dances. This is a show where a lot of visitors learn not only the cultures of the country but the people and their crops and lifestyles.

"This is an event not to be missed".
