Macleans Bridge Display Day

May 20, 2012 • Lakeside Park

Motor Sport Complex

May 20 was Australian Motoring Heritage Day and over 8,000 spectators visited the Lakeside Park Motor Sport Complex to view close to 1,300 classic cars at the 37th annual Maclean’s Bridge display day.

Located on the northern outskirts of Brisbane in the Australian state of Queensland, Lakeside hosted what was no doubt the largest display of classic cars ever in that state. Highlights of the day included the Shannons Concours d’Elegance, circuit laps and the raffle of a restored Triumph TR7 in support of the Spinal Injuries Association.
