Often imitated, never bettered!
The Variety Bash is Australia's longest running and most iconic charity motoring event. Each year, the Variety Bash sees hundreds fundraise and hit the road for kids in need. Known for it's flare and fanfare, it's always a sight to behold when the Variety Bash comes to town!
The Variety Bash is typically a 10-12 day event that takes participants across the country in a colourful convoy. The route is always jam-packed with iconic Aussie tourist destinations, offroad adventures and includes stops at schools and small towns to show some love along the way.
In addition to the grants presented en route, the Variety Bash is welcomed by regional communities as the spending on fuel, food and tourism often results in their biggest trading days of the year. Sometimes, our outrageous crew even outnumber the locals for a night!
With each car required to be at least 30 years old and decked out in a unique theme, there's colourful costumes and cars as far as the eye can see.
Entrants' fundraising efforts directly benefit kids and communities through grants, scholarships, and assistance provided along the journey.
All funds raised through the Variety Bash contribute directly to Variety - the Children's Charity. The event is run for the charity, by the charity.
