Great Lakes Historic Automobile Club's flagship car show, Motorfest, is held annually on the Sunday of the King's birthday long weekend, at John Wright Park in Tuncurry.
Created by the Great Lakes Historic Automobile Club some thirty-odd years ago, this annual event has become a great day out for families and car buffs alike, often attracting crowds in the thousands. The Great Lakes Historic Automobile Club invites all motor clubs to join us overlooking beautiful Cape Hawke Harbour at Tuncurry. The club expects the event will exceed our very successful 2023 event where we had more than 290 vehicles on display.
Each year sees increasing interest in displays by numerous car clubs with trophies to be awarded to 'Best Club Display' for the winner and runner-up.
Prizes and trophies, provided by local businesses, will be presented across a broad range of vehicles. A new category of ‘Under the Bonnet’ was trialed at the 2024 event.
The motor show is not restricted to car clubs, so motorists with vehicles that may be of 'special interest' are welcome to join in with fellow enthusiasts. Come on down to John Wright Park with your vehicle between 8am to 2pm on Sunday, 8th June, 2025. We are also expecting a good display of motorcycles.
If it's on wheels, we welcome it at Motorfest! Annually featuring Veteran, Vintage & Classic Cars, Motorcycles, Muscle Cars, Hot Rods, Stationary Engines, Street Machines and more. Every year, our Club strives to put on a bigger and better event.
New to Motorfest in 2025 will be the inaugural Rocker Cover Racing competition.
Rocker Cover Racing gives old, unused rocker covers from actual engines a second chance at life. No longer will they be a small and unnoticed elements of a bigger product. With Rocker Cover Racing, they leave their engines and the cars they're tightly packed in behind as they themselves become the centerpiece. Competitors take these old rocker covers and transform them into speed machines. With wheels and axles put on and of course racing stripes (to make it go faster), the rocker covers are ready for action. The only limit - one's creativity!
On display also will be a very interesting array of stationary engines from the DONKS Club. Great Lakes FM will be broadcasting live throughout the show. Hot food and coffee will be available. During the day, our roving reporter will provide interesting interviews with car owners, the public and our vendors.
Our club is very appreciative of the vast community support we get from local businesses, and, in particular Mid Coast Ford, who are again, in 2025, our major sponsor.
Entry to the public is always always FREE. The vehicle display fee is $15 per vehicle. Proceeds from Motorfest are donated to a local charity.
The 2024 Mid Coast Ford Motorfest was a great success. Motorfest 2025 is set to be even bigger!
