Red CentreNATS, presented by LMCT+, is bringing back one of its most popular attractions this Father’s Day weekend with the Shannons Show ’N’ Shine taking over the Lasseters Hub.
On Friday 5 September from 5pm to 10pm and Saturday 6 September from 10am to 3pm, the event will showcase some of the finest cars and bikes in Australia, from rare classics and wild customs to elite builds that stop you in your tracks.
Event organiser Owen Webb says the 2025 edition is bigger, better and in a prime new location.

“We have completely revamped the Shannons Show ’N’ Shine for 2025 and moved it to the heart of town at Lasseters,” Owen said.
“It is going to have a mega festival atmosphere with incredible cars, great food and plenty of action all weekend.”
The range of vehicles on display will be one of the event’s biggest drawcards.
“This year we will have everything from elite show cars and tough street machines to hot rods, classics, supercars and bikes,” Owen said.
“Every single one has a story and the quality is simply outstanding.”

The new location brings more space, improved facilities and a layout designed for easy access.
“We can offer dedicated lawns for displays, indoor exhibition areas and spaces for elite vehicles, car clubs and the Jetcor Bike Show,” Owen said.
“It is all in one place and easy for spectators to enjoy.”
Owen says the Shannons Show ’N’ Shine will be a highlight for both locals and visitors.

“You can wander through the displays, talk to the owners and then watch hundreds of vehicles roll out for the Street Parade. It is non-stop entertainment,” Owen said.
“It is a true celebration of car culture in the Red Centre. The atmosphere will be electric and the variety will blow people away.”
Shannons Business Development Manager Robert Berry says the event never fails to impress.
“The range of cars and motorbikes that travel from all over Australia will impress anyone,” Robert said.
“The atmosphere is electric, with incredible machines everywhere you look and passionate owners ready to share their stories.”

Robert has been part of the event for years and says it still surprises him.
“I have attended every year and I am still amazed at what turns up, from pristine classics to wild modified builds,” Robert said.
“There is truly something for everyone. You might even see some of these machines hit the race track and go head-to-head for bragging rights.”

For entrants, the Shannons Show ’N’ Shine is a rare opportunity to display their pride and joy in front of thousands.
“It brings the entire car community together, boosts Alice Springs and offers a backdrop you will not see anywhere else,” Robert said.
From family cruisers and weekend warriors to polished elite builds, the Shannons Show ‘N’ Shine has something for every taste and every age. Whether you are entering or just coming for a look, you will not leave disappointed.

Red CentreNATS, presented by LMCT+, will be held in Alice Springs across the Father’s Day weekend with elite show cars, burnouts, drag racing and more.
