Fairfield Showground, Multipurpose venue in Prairiewood, Australia

Fairfield Showground is a 33-hectare multi-purpose venue in Prairiewood, western Sydney, with about 10,000 square metres of undercover exhibition space. It holds three playing fields—two rectangular and one Australian rules—plus the Parklands Function Centre for up to 250 people. Orphan School Creek runs along its northern edge, and eucalyptus bushland surrounds the site.

The grounds first opened in the 1950s near Orphan School Creek and served as an exhibition space from the beginning. A major upgrade program started in 2017 to improve the facilities and infrastructure across the site.

Assyrian Australians hold their New Year festival here every 1 April, with music, theatrical performances, traditional dancers, food stalls and fireworks; the band Azadoota regularly performs. The showground also hosts Australia's first and longest-running Eid Festival, begun in 1987, which has drawn guests such as Yusuf Islam, footballer Hazem El Masri and former governor-general Michael Jeffery.

Visitors will find ample parking with around 600 spaces and easy access to the sports facilities and function center throughout the grounds. It is wise to arrive early, particularly when large markets or events are scheduled, to secure good parking and avoid congestion.

The Saturday market fills the sheltered area behind the grandstands with space for more than 600 stalls, free to enter and open from 9am to 4pm. Stalls cover toys, groceries, hardware, gardening, jewellery and pet supplies, and children's rides such as pony rides and a mini-train run on most weekends.
