What's almost three kilometres long, has hundreds of wheels and boasts thousands of horsepower? It’s the annual Alexandra Truck, Ute and Rod Show. The 2013 event will again be staged on the Sunday of the Queens Birthday Weekend (9 June) in Alexandra in Victoria’s Upper Goulburn region.
There’s plenty to see and do for the whole family at this classic event. Live music, children’s amusements, trade displays, major woodchop tournament and a huge auction.
The 2012 event proved to be the largest show ever held, with an estimated 15,000 people making their way to Alexandra. 2013 marks the seventeenth annual event and is destined to be as good as previous years and the good news is that admission is free, making it a great family day out.
The success of the show in recent years has enabled the Truck Show to donate over $100,000 to support many community organisations. This year the Truck Show will support the extension project for the Kellock Lodge aged care facility in Alexandra.
You will find all the latest, and not so latest, road-going rigs lined up in the town’s main streets - giant interstate hauler’s, timber trucks, logging and contractor equipment, plus a great showing of historic trucks - all of them the pride and joy of their dedicated owners. Many vehicles are specially prepared for show and shine and displayed with pride by their owners.
Adding to the day is an incredible array of utes that will line up in Alexandra's main street. The Ute section contributes to the huge following of these unique cars throughout the country by offering one of the largest ute displays on the Victorian circuit.
Plus there’s a day full of great music entertainment on the main stage.
The Alexandra Truck & Ute Show event attracts thousands of visitors and is strongly supported by the local community and businesses. Thanks to our sponsors in particular, the Truck Show is able to continue to support the local community as it has for many years by distributing funds to a number of local organisations. It is truly something by the community for the community. Alexandra Truck n Ute Show
