2025 Spring Car Nationals (Springnats) revved up Shepparton last month for another successful event. The event came with the exciting announcement from Council that the event will be held in Shepparton for another four years.
There is a new Event Venue Agreement that reflects feedback from the community and key stakeholders. New conditions will prohibit alcohol being brought on site by participants, as well as consequences for breaches and organisers will be required to apply for all permits and manage all facets and risks of the Street Cruise parade.
From 2026, the Street Cruise held through Fryers Street and the Showgrounds precinct will move from Saturday afternoon to Sunday morning, limiting the disruption to traffic and business trading.
Council will continue to work with the Spring Car Nationals’ organisers to explore new concepts and enhance the event’s appeal, encouraging more community members and visitors to attend.
