NOOSA'S NEXT BIG THING! by John Crawford

The inaugural Noosa Concours d’Elegance  will be staged on Saturday 15^th July 2023, in Hastings Street, Noosa.

 

This exciting new event is being organised thanks to the vision and enthusiasm of business owners and residents of Noosa; who have always promoted motoring activities thanks to passionate individuals and car clubs.

Classics old and new will be invited to attend.

 

Hastings St will present a display of spectacular automobiles and memorabilia with the Concours d‘Elegance attracting enthusiastic owners, renowned judges and interesting personalities from the motoring world.  There are over 40 highly-regarded Concours events in unique locations around the world so that rare and important vehicles can be seen and enjoyed by owners and enthusiasts alike.

 

The Noosa Council and Hastings Street businesses have combined to block off the boulevard from 10am to 5pm to present this unique display. Hastings St is both a popular location, and a perfect setting for what will be a memorable event in the Australian and International motoring and concours calendar.

 

One of the instigators of the event Steve Padgett OAM, who is the Chairman of Alliance Airlines, as well as a major sponsor, car collector and passionate aviator said: “The Hastings Street Concours d’Elegance will, in a boutique way, mirror the famous, world-renowned motoring showcase held annually at Pebble Beach in Monterey, California, so I am delighted to be part of what will be a wonderful new event for our region.”
