The 2020 Henty Show was cancelled due to upgrade works happening to the sportsground and the 2021 show never left the ground due to risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic.
But show committee secretary Kerry Small said the community would be "really pleased" to host the event on Saturday February 12.
"One year we had a really bad drought, but everyone turned up at the show," she said.

"People just sat and chatted to each other, to neighbours they hadn't seen for a while, and it was a really lovely, nice atmosphere.
"Everyone seems to catch up with everyone at the show."
Mrs Small said it would be the 117th Henty Show.
"We just had to wait for COVID for the chance to have it again," she said.
It is unclear whether the Wodonga Show and the Holbrook Show, both also normally held in the Autumn, will go ahead next year.
