“We’re delighted to have been invited by the City of Norwood, Payneham and St Peters Council to bring our beautiful cars to the Norwood Street Party. I’m sure the public will enjoy another opportunity to see them up-close and I know our entrants will love putting them on display,” event Chairman David Edwards said.

“With our competitors’ welcome party, many private events, Gouger Street, Norwood and the awards dinner, there is now something for rally visitors to enjoy every night in Adelaide

“Our four daily loop courses into different parts of the Adelaide region not only provide a driving challenge along magnificent, scenic closed roads, but also return to our Hilton Adelaide hotel headquarters in plenty of time prepare for the night’s festivities.

“It’s a wonderful experience for driving enthusiasts of all abilities and cars of all types. Classic Adelaide’s combination of sporting and social events makes it world-renowned.”
