About Targa Classica

Targa Classica is Australia’s premier classic car event, a thrilling journey that mirrors Italy’s Grand Eventi. It is a unique blend of adventure, culture, and competition, inspired by Italy’s iconic classic car events but with a distinct local flavour.

The Event

Targa Classica offers a four-day festival that excites and delights all the senses. The event draws deep inspiration from the classic regularity events of Italy and brings the style, culture, and spectacle to Australia with an authentic touch. Victoria’s great driving roads provide the pathway to adventure, where competitors can unleash their passion, take in the sights of our Victorian regional tourist destinations, enjoy good food and wine unique to each of the regions and feel part of an event that is built on over 100 years of European classic driving history.
