The National Motor Museum at Birdwood houses Australia’s most important collection of vintage, veteran and classic motor cars and motor cycles – more than 300 in fact.
It’s set in a beautiful complex by the River Torrens in Adelaide's picturesque hills, 50 kilometres from Adelaide.
The museum hosts special events each year including the Bay to Birdwood Run, held in September on even years. This is one of the world's great historic motoring events, with a spectacular list of more than 1800 vintage vehicles, complete with passengers in period dress. The rally winds through the Adelaide Hills, where the vehicles spend the day on display at the museum while visitors enjoy Australia's biggest motoring picnic.
The Bay to Birdwood Classic is held in September on odd years. More than 2,000 classic motor vehicles follow the route from Glenelg to Birdwood, followed by a day of pure classic entertainment at the museum.
At the Rock ‘n Roll Rendezvous, nostalgic groovers dance to live music, dressed in flared skirts and slick-back hairstyles. Enthusiasts travel from across Australia in their period vehicles of fins to participate.
The National Motor Museum is much more than a collection of vehicles – it is a social history of the way we were, the way we are now and the way of the future.
The museum answers more than 2,000 research enquiries each year from across Australia and overseas. Programs are also provided for more than 8,000 students who visit each year. Guided tours can be organised by prior arrangement. Hours are flexible for pre-bookings, conventions, plus catering arranged for groups and clubs.
