ACA National Finals
Australian Campdraft Association (ACA) is pleased to release the updated event program for the 2026 ACA National Finals at Paradise Lagoons, to be held from 10–13 June, following the postponement of the April event.
The decision to postpone, rather than cancel, reflects a shared commitment in preserving this important event for our community. Campdrafting is not only a competition; it is a vital opportunity to connect, support one another, and maintain the continuity of our sport during challenging times.
While only minor adjustments have been made to the program, the most notable change is a reduction in nomination fees. This decision was made by the Paradise Lagoons Campdraft Committee in recognition of the current cost of living pressures and the increased financial demands being experienced by competitors and their families.
ACA acknowledges that nomination fees represent only a portion of the overall expense associated with competing in campdraft events. However, it was important to take practical steps to help ease the financial burden where possible and to ensure the event remains both accessible and viable for competitors.
ACA acknowledge the valued contribution of our sponsors, cattle donors and supporting businesses, whose ongoing commitment makes this event possible. Attendees, competitors and viewers are encouraged to show their support and join us in expressing our sincere gratitude for their involvement.
ACA look forward to welcoming you to Paradise Lagoons in June for what promises to be a rewarding and well supported National Finals.
