On Sunday, April 18, the McLaren Vale Vintage and Classic will return, bringing the region alive with a grand parade of motoring history, vintage fashion, local wines, gourmet food and music. In its 16th year, the event will see more than 500 vintage and classic motor vehicles parade along the streets of McLaren Vale against a breathtaking backdrop of wineries and vineyards. All vehicles will begin their journey on the gorgeous open lawns located at the front of Serafino, where participants will indulge in a delicious breakfast to fuel them for the day ahead while also having the chance to mingle with fellow car lovers. The Grand Parade will officially commence at 11am with all vehicles rolling out of Serafino for the 2km drive along Main Road where hundreds of spectators will line the streets setting up picnics to sit back, relax and enjoy the motorcade. At the end of the main route, the sea of vehicles will part ways and head towards one of 10 wineries, including Paxton Wines, Hugo Wines and Shingleback Wine Cellar Door, where visitors will have the opportunity to get up close and personal with the motor masterpieces. For the sports car enthusiasts, Shingleback will host an impressive display of up to eight McLarens all of which will be on show under a large marquee in front of their cellar door. McLaren Vale Vintage & Classic chairman, Trevor Sharp, is thrilled to kick off the 2021 event after the parade was cancelled last year due to COVID. “We are excited for this year’s McLaren Vale Vintage & Classic event, considering we were unable to run it last year given the unprecedented circumstances,” he said. “It’s a perfect day for the family to enjoy and for motor enthusiasts and the general public alike. Our world-class wineries will also be on show.” This year, participants and spectators are also encouraged to dress according to the period of their vehicle.
