Since 1988

A Noosa institution

What began in 1988 with just 17 cars on the lawn has grown into one of the coast’s best-loved classic car events — up to 300 classics, hot rods, motorcycles and barn finds.

It’s more than a car show: live music, food stalls, trade displays and a relaxed street-party atmosphere make it a great day out for the whole family.
