Bennett Hosts Invitation only Sundowner to celebrate the Harvesters in Perth activation

On Thursday 20 June 2024, the Dowerin Machinery Field Days (Field Days) captured Perth’s attention with a spectacular activation celebrating all things machinery innovation and agriculture tech.

The activation featured dynamic driving formations representing five global brands which were filmed on Langley Park, followed by a static display of the massive machines.

Bennett is a proud major sponsor of the Dowerin Machinery Field Days. This features as an iconic event on the Australian regional calendar bringing together the full agriculture supply chain from agribusiness, to machinery, equipment, livestock and professional services.

Dowerin Machinery Field Days General Manager Danielle Green said the activation highlighted the significance of the sector to the everyday lives of Western Australians, as well as showcase the technology and innovation powering the grainbelt.

Managing Principal Nathan Ebbs welcomed the opportunity to support the initiative with an invitation-only sundowner that was attended by key ag advocates.

“The activation served as more than just a display of farm machinery; it symbolised the interconnectedness of rural and urban communities,” Nathan said.

“The event offered an opportunity for the public to witness the harvesters in real life and gained a deeper understanding of the vital role agriculture plays in our everyday lives. It’s a privilege to help champion the sector on which we all rely to feed our families and our future.”

Bennett enjoyed collaborating with the Field Days valued exhibitors, Boekeman Machinery, CLAAS Harvest Centre, Agwest Machinery, AFGRI Equipment, and McIntosh & Son, five leading global machinery brands were represented.

This never-before-seen vision was captured with the Perth CBD skyline in the background, connecting country and city.
