The long wait will soon be over. Australian classic and sports car enthusiasts can look forward to the opening of the Brisbane Motor Museum in Banyo.
“Brisbane Motoring Enthusiasts… Save the Date,” Brisbane Motor Museum’s social media post announcing the new venue’s opening date reads.
“We are pleased to announce on June 16th the Brisbane Motor Museum will be opening its doors to the public. Celebrate this grand public opening with us on Friday, Saturday or Sunday. Finally, we have a place in Brisbane for Motoring Enthusiasts to call home.”
Just minutes north of the Brisbane CBD and Airport, the Brisbane Motor Museum at 959 Nudgee Road is set to become the new home for historic and classic car enthusiasts.
The motoring hub will feature 3 to 4 months of rotating exhibits showcasing a cast collection of invited cars, so there’s always something new to see. The exhibits will include a marquee, car club milestones, themed exhibits, artworks and motoring materials.
According to plans, the ground floor space will include a foyer, storage area, reception and access to the undercroft car parking area. There will also be club rooms, meeting rooms, a gift shop, a food and drinks outlet, a public elevator, undercover parking, a library and more than 900 sqm of space that will serve as the exhibit area.
“The exhibit is planned to offer both a static and dynamic display. Our static display houses mostly vehicles from the museum’s collection as well as feature cars that are on display beyond the exhibit’s duration,” Brisbane Motor Museum said in describing the marques that will be on display at the museum.
“Our dynamic display is as mentioned, rotated every exhibit theme providing patrons fresh displays across many interests. Dynamic displays may involve themed events such as “The Best of a British” or “The Italian Festival of Speed” or focus on a car club’s anniversary or celebrated marque.”
