GT Festival The Bend, Round 5 of the 2025 Shannons SpeedSeries, is bringing Ferrari, Porsche, McLaren, Lamborghini, Ford Mustang, Radical Cup Australia’s open wheelers, and much more to The Shell V-Power Motorsport Park!
With five national categories and the historic cars of Group S Racing on track, plus loads of fan access and family fun, this is your chance to get up close to the action and see the current and upcoming stars of Australian motorsport.
Categories on track:

The paddock and trackside areas are open to all ticket holders. Make sure to walk through the paddock, say hello to teams, and snap a few photos because you’ll be right in the middle of the action. Catch the first sessions from Friday morning onwards and expect plenty of on-track battles and championship tension over the weekend.
Fans and friends have the chance to get up close to the action with free Grid Walks on Sunday. First up is Monochrome GT4 Australia, followed by GT World Challenge Australia powered by AWS just before the main race.
The weather can change quickly, as we all know, and being prepared will help you to be a step ahead. Please expect mixed conditions and pack both warm and wet weather gear, and if it’s looking clear, also sun protection to stay comfortable. Good shoes are a must, as there will be a lot to see in the paddock.
Gates Open: 8am – 5pm daily. Entry via Main Gate
Parking: Included in the entry fee – follow signage and directions from staff.
