During the show, guests were treated to two days of entertainment, live music, stalls and agricultural competitions.
The success of the autumn event is testimony to the hard working committee including Wagin Woolorama president Malcolm Edward.
"The strength of the show is that it brings people together to celebrate and bond, to compete and remain friends as well as socialising and building good memories together," he said.
On Friday the show was officially opened by Transport minister Dean Nalder who spent his childhood on a local farm with his four siblings.
"My family involvement with Wagin Woolorama goes back many years and ... I am certainly looking forward to getting around and catching up old friends and family," Mr Nalder said.
Former Kojonup girl Chloe Radford is the rural ambassador for Woolorama 2015 and said the event is a great opportunity to encourage young people to live in rural areas.
"I see this event as having an important role in the community to promote the rural industry and the benefits of country living," she said.
Highlights of the 2015 event included a number of fashion shows, a dog jumping competition and a rodeo.
The Wagin Argus was also recognised for its 110 year history and presented with an award in recognition of its efforts to serve the community.
