100 days to go: ‘gears up’ for ultimate truck show experience
THE countdown is officially on. With just 100 days to go, anticipation is building for one of the most exciting events on the trucking calendar – the 2025 North Coast Petroleum Casino Truck Show.
This year’s show, to be held in the Casino CBD on Saturday 2 August, promises to be bigger and better than ever, bringing together industry leaders, manufacturers, enthusiasts and families for a celebration of everything trucking.
From the latest in heavy vehicle innovation to stunning custom rigs, entertainment, and networking opportunities, the NCP Casino Truck Show is a must-attend event.
According to Richmond Valley Council’s General Manager Vaughan Macdonald, reaching the 100-day mark was a major milestone and the team was working “full noise” to deliver an unforgettable show.
Mr Macdonald said whether you’re part of the industry or just loved trucks, this event had something for everyone, because at the end of the day, without trucks Australia stopped.
Highlights of the event include:
- Friday Night Lights, sponsored by All American Custom Chrome: Downtown Casino will come to life as early arrivals become rolling light shows. There will be live entertainment for all to enjoy. Spectators of all ages are invited to enjoy the festive spirit.
- The 2025 Dawson’s Haulage Parade will start at 10am Saturday with 200 of Australia’s finest rigs making their way along Johnston Street, into Centre Street before parking up in the CBD.
- Live demonstrations: Get hands-on with the latest truck technologies and hear from industry experts.
- Family-friendly activities: A fun-filled experience with activities for kids, food vendors, industry exhibits and live music.
- Networking opportunities: Connect with professionals and businesses shaping the future of the trucking industry.
- Presentation of trophies at the Mafeking Lamp, including Rig of the Show, and featuring the finest trucks on display, judged on creativity, craftsmanship and overall presentation.
Mr Macdonald thanked the many sponsors and exhibitors for their continued support of what is now known as one of the biggest truck shows in the southern hemisphere.
“With strong support from sponsors and exhibitors, and a growing list of attendees and visitors from across the country and beyond, this year’s show is shaping up to be the biggest yet,” he said.
“Let the countdown begin – see you in 100 days.”
