The Triumph Sports Owners’ Association in conjunction with the MX5 Club and the Caboolture Aero Club will present Mac’s Bridge Classic and Sports Car & Aircraft Festival at the Caboolture Aero Club.
Mac’s Bridge is back bigger and better for 2024.
This year the Triumph Sports Owners Association Queensland have been joined by the Mazda MX5 club and Caboolture Aero Club to host of the event. The event is to be held on the grass cross strip (closed for the day) at Caboolture Airport which is at the end of Aerodrome Road, Caboolture (use exit 152A towards Bribie Island, take the first turn left once over the M1 overpass to Aerodrome road and follow the signs).
In addition to the usual comprehensive classic car displays, there is the additional attraction of viewing classic aircraft and warbirds that will be parked adjacent to the car display. Approximately twenty WW2 and early 1950 aircraft are expected ranging from Tiger Moth, Chipmunk, Stearman, Harvard/SNJ to a T28 Trojan. A display of working radial engines is also planned.
The Australian Aviation Heritage Centre is also located at Caboolture Aerodrome and visitors will be able to view their aircraft and restoration facilities at a modest entry fee. The most notable of their exhibits is the large ex RAAF Caribou as well as Vietnam era RAAF Huey helicopter as well as many other historic exhibits.
Its going to be a tremendous car and aircraft display event for all to enjoy with Community Radio 101.5FM playing classic hits from the 60’s to 80’s. Prizes for the best car on the field will be made by the three Club Presidents as well as the Inter Club Competition Show and Shine event. Plenty of food, drink and coffee vendors will be easily accessible and public facilities are located nearby. Bring your hats, sunscreen and photographic equipment for an exceptional day on the grass.
Mark down July 14th 2024 on your calendar, bring your mates and come along to join the fun. Gates open at 7am for exhibitors ($20 per car), 9am for visitors ($15 per car).
