You’ve watched the show, your a car nut just like us, you love the open road… So now you’re ready!

Ready to embark on a life-changing adventure that combines your love for cars with a mission to help kids in need? Getting involved with Variety Motoring Events is easier than you think! Here’s how you can join the journey and make a real impact.

You gotta do it!! 

First things first – just make the decision to get involved! Whether it’s the Variety Bash, Brats Bash, 4WD adventures, or Classic Cruise, there’s an event tailored for every car enthusiast.

Register for the Event

Head over to the Variety website or call your local Variety office. The Motoring Events teams in NSW/ACT, Victoria, Tasmania, and Western Australia are fantastic to chat with and will guide you through every step of your Variety Motoring events adventure. Once you’ve registered, you’ll receive all the supporting literature you need, including event and fundraising resources galore to help you on your way. 

Find Your Ride

Time to look for a car! Now, this is the fun stuff, right? You might already have a potential Bash car sitting in your garage – if your anything like us, which we know you are, you have something stashed away that would be just perfect. Over the years, we’ve seen many “bashers” transform their existing vehicles into adventure-ready machines. But, if you’re in the market for a car – if your anything like us, which we know you are, your always in the market for a car – you can check out the cars for sale on the Variety website for a Bash ready Ride or other great places to look include Facebook Marketplace, Gumtree, and Car Sales. 

Check Requirements

Make sure to check the requirements in the State that you are participating the event in, but generally, your car needs to be 25-30 years old to go on the Variety Bash.

Once you’ve got your ride, grab the Variety Bash Vehicle Guide for your chosen event and start prepping your ride!

Variety is Here to Help

Remember, Variety is always there to support you. Even as certified car peeps here at Resto my Ride, we were and continue to be super impressed with the support from Variety. From registration support to mobile workshop days, they’ve got your back every step of the way. The easiest thing to do is to find your ride and just dive into the process – you’ll be guided and supported the entire way.
