The Machine Show

We are a vintage motorcycle camp-out weekend get-together for folks of all ages, all motorcycle marques, all motorcycle styles. We are a family based event and our hope is that we can bring together riders and their machines from all walks of life, all over Australia, hopefully even the world via our social media network and celebrate the amazing life that anyone can have when they become involved in motorcycles. Gates open Friday lunch and most people are headed home by lunch Sunday. What this means is that we are a two day and two night event. Day passes will be sold at the gate and concession passes with proof of concession on the day. Day passes will mean no camping. So if you have other accommodation arranged just buy a day pass if you like on the Saturday when you come for the day. The Show is a camp-out weekend for both Friday and Saturday nights. We have proper bathroom facilities with toilets and showers, food vendors, a beautiful campground with firebins and firewood for sale so that everyone can have a great camp set up and be comfortable around a fire with their friends and family. The centre stage of our weekend is the static “show and shine” display all day Saturday. The arena gate opens at 8am and all bikes pre-1988 are eligible to enter and be judged. We are into ALL motorcycles in ALL levels of condition, so bring your bike along and put it in the arena. This year we are adding a few new elements to the show. The 2019 Bike Build Competition that has 36 entries, and the Mini-Machine Build comp for under 13s. We also promote selling parts or bikes over the weekend, so anyone that wants to bring parts along just set up shop at your campsite. In other words, an informal swap meet, but please, motorcycle parts only, no car parts or bric-a-brac.  Last year there were rides organised to and from the show. Guys and girls rode from Victoria, Sydney, Queensland and pretty well all over NSW. If you are organising a ride and are taking a couple of days to get to Braidwood and home, and want to ride with others, send usa message and we will let others know so that they can join you along the way. At the Machine Show it doesn’t matter what you ride…as long as you ride. All motorcycles and their riders are welcome. Our show is about motorcycles and friends getting together around a campfire, enjoying the country and our local town Braidwood that has so much to offer. We hope to see you at the show this March and please be careful riding to and from the event, we really promote safety throughout the weekend and do our best to ensure the Braidwood Showground is a safe place for all adults and children to visit.   [email protected]  https://themachineshow.com.au/
