Motorclassica returns in October

Motorclassica is set to be staged at Melbourne’s Royal Exhibition Building again this year from October 23-25.

Now entering its sixth consecutive year it's a great exhibition of rare and exotic, historic, vintage, veteran, classic and collectable motorcycles and cars.

"For the bike enthusiasts, we’ll be marking 70 years of the Italian marque MV Agusta and also recognising some local heritage by celebrating 50 years of the Bugatti Owners Club in Australia, with another dedicated display," said Paul Mathers, Motorclassica Event Director

Motorclassica 2015 will feature more than 100 cars and 50 motorcycles displayed throughout the historic halls of the Royal Exhibition Building, with a further 200 or more each day over the weekend in the Club Sandwich club displays.

And select contemporary manufacturers will be back too, with a number of brands keen to return to Motorclassica to highlight their heritage while displaying their latest products.

"Motorclassica is such a unique event … it’s about celebrating the automotive lifestyle and the passion of those who participate. But it’s also a platform for modern car and bike manufacturers to demonstrate the heritage and passion of their brands," said Mathers.

There's also the annual Australian International Concours d’Elegance, recognising the best of the best in a number of event categories with a trophy that’s a highly sought-after prize in the collector car and motorcycle world.

Motorclassica 2015 will kick off, as usual, with another unique aspect of this automotive extravaganza: Tour Classica.

Tour Classica will see select Motorclassica exhibits drive in convoy through the streets of Melbourne’s CBD on Thursday morning (October 22) prior to taking up residence at the Royal Exhibition Building, a spectacular and unique start to this amazing event.
