Vintage engines roar this weekend
QUEENSLAND’S proud history of machinery, motoring, and mechanical ingenuity will take centre stage when the 47th Annual Vintage Machinery Rally rolls into the Woodford Showgrounds this Saturday and Sunday, October 18-19.
Hosted by the Antique Machinery Restoration Society of Queensland (AMRSQ), the two-day celebration runs from 9am to 4pm and will showcase an impressive lineup of vintage engines, trucks, tractors, cars, and working machinery displays.
Visitors can expect the nostalgic rumble of restored stationary engines, rows of gleaming vintage vehicles, and a touch of community spirit at the ever-popular daily grand parade. A bric-a-brac stall will also be open throughout the weekend, offering everything from collectible curios to handmade finds.
With its relaxed country atmosphere, the rally has become a fixture on the local events calendar, drawing visitors from across the region and interstate.
The event will be held at Woodford Showgrounds, 38 Neurum Road, Woodford, with entry just $5 for adults and free admission for children under 14. Parking is available on-site, and food vendors will be serving refreshments throughout the day.
