3. The 2019 Adelaide Hills Rally

When: 19—22 September

Where: Adelaide Hills and The Bend Motorsport Park

Watch the gravel fly as some of Australia’s best rally drivers power-slide around the roads of the Adelaide Hills and The Bend Motorsport Park.

Thursday’s ceremonial start and street party in Mount Barker will give you a chance to get-up close to some seriously impressive motoring machinery and meet the racers. Follow the action to The Bend Motorsport Park for the Karting Challenge and Super Special Stage on Friday and Saturday, before finishing up in the stunning Adelaide Hills on Sunday for the Mawson Row Stage.

If you’re heading to the Sunday stage, sweeten the deal with a special brunch and lunch package at Anderson Hill Winery – one of the best places to catch the action.
