Celebrate the past and present of motoring at RACQ MotorFest
Sunday 14 June 2026 - 10am to 3pm - Brisbane Showgrounds
The fun, atmosphere and excitement of RACQ MotorFest returns on Sunday, 14 June 2026 at the iconic Brisbane Showgrounds.
A unique celebration of all things motoring as well as a showcase of RACQ past, present and future, our annual event has something for everyone, including roving entertainment, kids’ rides, food stalls and an array of wonderful prestige, vintage, unique and collector vehicles, as well as the latest in vehicle and transport technology.
Returning to the Brisbane Showgrounds on Gregory Terrace in Bowen Hills, the 2026 event will showcase more cars, more food, more kids’ entertainment and more exhibitors! With such a large variety on offer, RACQ MotorFest is sure to delight.
It’s been several years since our Volvo 1800 120 Club has participated in this event so this is a great opportunity to promote our Volvos and our club.
This is a really well organised day with lots of activities, displays, food vans. It’s in the open so make sure you bring a hat sunscreen and plenty of water.
