Geelong Revival motoring festival and speed trial on this weekend
11/22/2024 06:14 PM
One of Australia’s most entertaining motoring festivals, the Geelong Revival, is running this weekend November 22-24
One of Australia’s most exciting and entertaining motoring festivals is on again this weekend. The 2024 Geelong Revival will run from November 22-24, in Geelong, about an hour south-west of Melbourne.
The Geelong Revival showcases modern and classic cars and motorcycles along the picturesque Geelong Waterfront with static displays combined with a short-course quarter-mile sprint race competition.
The sprints see competitors race the clock along a custom waterfront course. There are modern, classic, race and even electric categories, and with a near 90-degree turn at the end of the run, the event can be exciting for drivers and spectators alike. There are plenty of great viewing opportunities for the whole family, with sprints running throughout the day on Saturday and Sunday.
Car displays are active throughout the event, with a stunt show and RAAF acrobatic display included as part of the Geelong Revival excitement.
We’ll be on-site on both Saturday and Sunday afternoon commentating the sprint event, so listen out and come and say hi.
Tickets and event information can be found here.
