Supercars will make a maiden trip to Hobart ahead of the return to Tasmania later this month in the form of a street party.
On Wednesday, August 14, two days before the Tasmania SuperSprint, five drivers will head to the capital of the “Apple Isle” for the free public event.
From 15.00-18.00 AEST Mark Winterbottom, James Courtney, Chaz Mostert, Ryan Wood and Aaron Love will be taking part in signings, Q and As, fan activations and giveaways at Princes Wharf #1.
A select number of Gen3 Supercars, team transporters and official vehicles will also be on show.
The “street party” will be a streamed down version of the Track to Town events held at recent rounds.
However, it will be a significant moment with Supercars Chief Operating Officer Tim Watsford revealing it will be the first time the cars will be in Hobart ahead of going racing at the historic Symmons Plains near Launceston.
“We are incredibly excited to bring Supercars to Hobart for the very first time,” he said.
“This activation, made possible through the support of the Tasmania Government, is a fantastic opportunity for fans to get a taste of the action up close. It’s a great way for us to give back to the community.
“We can’t wait to see the excitement on the faces of fans, and we hope this event will encourage everyone to join us at Symmons Plains over August 16-18 for the NED Whisky Tasmania SuperSprint.”
The Tasmania SuperSprint will be held from August 16-18.
