RAA Bay to Birdwood Start
Barratt Reserve
The RAA Bay to Birdwood is one of the world's great historic motoring events and has been an iconic fixture on the South Australian events calendar since 1980. The event starts at Barratt Reserve West Beach and is a great opportunity for spectators to see the vehicles before and as they embark on their journey.
Thousands of spectators line the 67 kilometre route to view the passing parade of historic motoring from West Beach through to the National Motor Museum, Birdwood in the Adelaide Hills. The crowd admiration for the antique, veteran, vintage, post-war/early-classic, classic, post-classic and modern classics is truly inspiring. Held annually, the RAA Bay to Birdwood is a mass-participatory citizen-collector driven historic motoring event that draws participants from around Australia and the world to celebrate historic motoring.
Vehicles manufactured prior to 1993 will be able to enter. Period clothing is a feature of the RAA Bay to Birdwood, with many participants in their vehicles match the era of their vehicles with their attire. Many in the crowd join in the fun of dressing up. Hints and tips will be provided as the event draws nearer.
