2023 Bright Rod  Run Program

10th to 12th November

We have a fantastic weekend planned. Our program includes our regular Friday Night Bench Session and Entrant BBQ with live music, the ‘Poker Run’, the Pin Up Competition, a Rock & Roll dance demonstration, entrant dinner & live show, the Rotary Market, the sensational Show & Shine with Trade Show, the live Street Party on Sunday evening and of course, we’ll be cruising all weekend.

This year, we incorporate Remembrance Day and are very proud to support our local RSL branch.  We will include a poppy with each car entry and donate the proceeds to The Bright RSL.  We also encourage everyone to observe and participate in the Remembrance Day service to be held at the clocktower at 11am, Saturday November 11, 2023. 

For the Show’n’Shine, all cars – both entrants and spectators will enter through the Coronation Ave entrance near Dougherty’s Bridge.  Gates will open at 7am for entrants only and 9am for the public.  It is important for traffic flow that entrants have their entrant sticker clearly visible, if you are not displaying your entrant sticker, we cannot hold up traffic while you find it and you will be directed to the spectator parking.  You can be guided back to the oval once your sticker is in place.
