ChromeFest 2024: Australia’s Premier Car Show Roars into The Entrance

ChromeFest, a prominent car show and community celebration, is gearing up for another exciting edition at The Entrance from October 25-27. This event stands out as one of the largest rock’n’roll festivals in New South Wales, honoring vintage cars predating 1979. With its 16th installment, ChromeFest remains a significant annual event organized by the Central Coast Council, drawing a crowd of around 50,000 attendees last year.

The festival promises a dynamic lineup of over 10 live bands performing on five different stages. From the free Chrome After Dark show on Friday at Memorial Park to the ticketed Saturday night event at Mingara, attendees can immerse themselves in a variety of entertainment options. Additionally, visitors can look forward to a Pin-Up competition, fashion displays, vendor stalls, car exhibitions, and various activities throughout the three-day extravaganza.

The highlight of Saturday night’s program, the ticketed event “Saturday Night Jive,” will feature Lance Lipinsky & the Lovers, an American band renowned for their captivating performances. Lance’s charismatic stage presence and boogie-woogie piano skills are set to enthral the audience, promising an unforgettable experience for all attendees.

Council Administrator Rik Hart emphasized the substantial impact of ChromeFest on the local community and economy. Last year, the event injected over $11 million into the regional economy, showcasing its economic significance and community engagement. Anticipating an even larger turnout this year, Hart highlighted the event’s appeal to both locals and tourists, fostering a sense of community spirit and offering a nostalgic journey for older residents.

The festival’s lineup includes a Show N’ Shine competition, classic car showcases, retro market stalls, live entertainment on outdoor stages, vintage fashion parades, and the Australian Pin-Up Pageant NSW grand final. Attendees can also enjoy the Entrance Social Hub, roving performers, DJ sets, workshops, and the ChromeBar for a complete retro experience.

To accommodate the event, certain road closures will be in effect on Saturday and Sunday from 5 am to 5 pm. For a detailed schedule of events during ChromeFest weekend, interested individuals can visit chromefest.org or the Central Coast Council’s official website.

ChromeFest encapsulates the vibrant spirit of rockabilly culture, attracting enthusiasts and visitors alike to celebrate a shared love for classic cars and retro entertainment. With its rich blend of music, fashion, and automotive nostalgia, ChromeFest promises an immersive experience that resonates with attendees of all ages.
