Roadrunner Car Club, who host the popular annual Noosa Charity Car Show, has joined forces once again with their charity partner Katie Rose Cottage Hospice, to create a new red-carpet Gala Dinner to help raise much-needed funds for the local palliative care hospice.
The Roadrunner Car Club was established in 2018 and soon after created the Noosa Charity Car Show with the aim of supporting Katie Rose Cottage Hospice, and since its inception they have raised over $33,000.
The RCC was started by a small number of people with the aim of providing social opportunities for people from around Noosa and the Sunshine Coast to meet and enjoy each other’s company, to have an opportunity to use and share their special cars where members can get together and enjoy each other’s company, in a relaxed and friendly environment.
The membership quickly began to grow, and the club was formally registered as a not-for-profit Incorporated Association.
Current membership is about 400 with a very high percentage of active members.
The Gala Dinner will be held at Noosa Springs Resort on Friday 4 October, as part of the Noosa Charity Car Show long weekend of events, which attracts car enthusiasts to the Noosa region from afar.
The annual car show and weekend raises vital funds, to help cover the cost of the professional Palliative Care team at Katie Rose Hospice, who provide round-the-clock care to those in our community facing end-of-life at no cost, when every moment matters.
Roadrunner Car Club president Ken McGregor said, “We are very fortunate to have this world-class facility right here on our doorstep, providing exceptional palliative care 24/7, to those in our community facing life-ending illnesses, at no cost to them or their family. We are delighted to host this event, for such a wonderful cause.”
The red-carpet Gala event provides an opportunity to dress up in your finery, enjoy fine food and wine and dance the night away, to music provided by popular local musician Maurice Milani. Please consider supporting and book your tickets today to this exciting night at Noosa Springs Resort.
Tickets for the Gala Dinner cost $160 per person and include a welcome drink and canapés on arrival on the Terrace, plus a sumptuous two-course meal. Drinks will be available at the bar and there is always plenty of parking!

The Annual Noosa Charity Car Show will be staged at Chaplin Park on Sunday 6 October, from 9am until 1pm for a $10 entry fee and will include family-friendly activities such as face-painting.
Keep an eye out for the Fred Flintstone car, built by one of the club’s members. You will want a photo in that for sure.
All proceeds from the events over the weekend go to our very own community hospice which relies on community support to provide 65 per cent of its operating costs.
Katie Rose Hospice has recently started an Outreach Service, enabling clients to be visited in the home in the Noosa area, and later this year will begin an extension taking the hospice from three to five rooms.
GT Collective, a new business and sponsor, has just opened in Noosaville. GT Collective will be bringing some very special race cars to display at the car show and spectators will be able to hear them running. You won’t want to miss this action.
Spectators will also be able to sit in the race cars and have their photo taken, for a gold coin donation to the Hospice.
