Over 300 cars and motorcycles are set to be displayed in distinct groups that reflect on the significant cultural settings and evolutionary stages of man and machine, showcasing the history of motor vehicles from their origins to the future.
In addition to the curated selections, the celebration will feature an extensive assortment of display vehicles, creating a mesmerising spectacle that promises to captivate visitors and showcase the ever-developing world of automotive innovation.
"Following the launch of Motors & Masterpieces, we have been humbled by the response from the motoring public who are genuinely excited to be involved," said Mark Jansen, the event's chief curator.
"It's clear that there is an enormous demand for an event of this ilk, and it is a thrill to see it taking shape.
"By defining the various themes that we will be showcasing, we expect to be able to fill the Melbourne Showgrounds with some of the most beautiful and historically significant machines from these shores and beyond.
“Our aim is to curate a truly unique collection, that will set Motors & Masterpieces apart.”
