Adelaide Motorsport Festival Locked In For 2025

Rich Fowler•30 April, 2024

After a successful running in 2024, the date for next year’s Adelaide Motorsport Festival has been confirmed.

The 2025 Adelaide Motorsport Festival has been pulled forward from the last to the first weekend of March.

The March 1 and 2 dates were announced during the highly successful 2024, confirming the Adelaide Motorsport Festival as one of the highlights on the Australian Motoring Calendar.

The 2024 attracted a star-studded cast of characters, including Formula 1 names Valtteri Bottas, Liam Lawson, Guenther Steiner, Damon Hill and David Croft to the former home of the Australian Grand Prix.

Supercars stars included Craig Lowndes and many famous Bathurst winners ranging from his Triple Eight 2006 Falcon to Larry Perkins Commodores and the Nissan Skyline “Godzillas”.

The 2025 lineup is still to be announced, but organisers expect to attract even more Australian and international motorsport luminaries, and build further on the flotilla of classic and iconic cars and bikes that flew around Victoria Park in 2024.
