Summernats 37: A Record-Breaking Car Festival
Update: 2025-12-09
Description
Summernats, Australias premier car festival, recently concluded its thirty-seventh event in Canberra, attracting a record 130,000 attendees and injecting $46.6 million into the local economy. The event, described as safe, fun, wild, has evolved into a family-friendly spectacle, as seen in Adrian Cuthbertsons five-year build of his Holden VE Commodore SS-U for burnouts. ACT Chief Minister Andrew Barr, who has previously faced criticism for not attending, is taking a family holiday this year. Looking ahead, Summernats thirty-eight, set for January 2025, promises even more excitement with venue improvements and musical acts like Peking Duck, Killing Heidi, and Screaming Jets. The festivals transformation from a disorganized event to a major draw highlights Canberras growing reputation as a welcoming city for major events.
