Club events

The Mercedes-Benz Club of NSW conduct numerous events during the year. These include technical days for particular popular models of Mercedes-Benz cars. While other events are of a social nature, some of which involve driving in procession to a nearby regional location. Most events conducted by the club are family orientated, and we encourage members to bring their families along. We encourage you to patricipate in discussions on the club forum regarding upcoming and past events. The MBCNSW events can be found in Activities and Events section of the forum.

You should contact the club by e-mail before attending any event to confirm details. Some events have limited places available.

Can I organise an event?

Yes you can. If you, or a group of members, would like to organise an event for the club, then of course you are most welcome to do so. The club encourages input and feedback from all of the members in everything we do.

All events must be approved prior to their organisation by the Club's Events Director for co-ordination and scheduling with the Club's Calendar.

If you would like assistance with organizing your event, the Events Committee is only too happy to assist you in any way they can. So put on your thinking caps, and "lets do it".
