⚠️ EVENT UPDATE ⚠️

This decision hasn’t been made lightly, especially with all the effort that’s gone in behind the scenes, but it’s the safest and most responsible call.

Due to the weather forecast this weekend, the Ruakaka Classic & Custom Car Show has been postponed.

👉 New date: Saturday 18th April 2026

The good news… the show is still going ahead, just one week later! 🚗🔥

We appreciate everyone’s understanding and support and we can’t wait to see you all there next Saturday for an even better day 🙌

Hi everyone, with the looming tropical cyclone approaching this weekend we have had to make the difficult choice to postpone the show one week to saturday the 18th of April.
We want the car owners and the public alike to enjoy the day and taking a gamble on the weather isn't worth the risk.
Our volunteers have put alot of effort into the planning and want to see it go ahead so thats it!!
See you all on the 18th 🔥
