Cars to glow and shine at SpringFest

EVEN if the sun isn’t shining on SpringFest’s market Sunday by Lake Wendouree, some classic and brand-new cars will be.

The Show N Glow will return to the south of the Ballarat Botanical Gardens on Sunday 26 November from 10am to 4pm.

Presented by Peter Stevens Motorworld, the car show is set to feature some new models from the dealership, Ballarat Road Rodders members’ vintage vehicles, as well as some owned by the general public.

Eligible rides include hot-rods, classic, historic, and custom cars, and specialty Vehicles.

“For everyone at Peter Stevens Motorworld, being part of Springfest is to support our local community where it counts most,” Peter Stevens Motorworld director Matthew Newey said.

“We are always proud to sponsor the Show N Glow and encourage everyone to come along and enjoy this special day.”

Participants can contest trophies and award packs across the categories of Peter Stevens MG Director’s Choice, SpringFest Ballarat Ambassador’s Choice, Rotary Club of Ballarat Choice, and the Ballarat Road Rodders Choice.

Entertainment will be on site including live band performances, and a rock-and-roll dance floor.

For those wanting to enter the event on the day, Ballarat Road Rodders marshals will direct people at Carlton Street before 9.30am.

Entry is $5, and spectators are encouraged to make a gold coin donation.

SpringFest will be held along the roadway of the gardens precinct, between St Aidans Drive and Carlton Street.

The festival is a Rotary Club of Ballarat initiative raising money for community beneficiaries, and local and international Rotary projects.
