Wollongong is gearing up for an adrenaline-packed event this November as it plays host to Round 3 of the Australian Supercross Championship. The announcement was made by promoter Troy Bayliss, a prominent figure in the world of Supercross racing. This marks the first time the Illawarra region will be hosting such a prestigious event, set to coincide with the Australian Motorcycle Festival at Lang Park.
Anticipation is high as thousands of motorcycle enthusiasts are expected to flock to WIN Stadium for the championship round. The unique track layout, winding around the stadium field and extending onto the hill, promises an immersive experience for spectators. According to Bayliss, this setup will bring fans closer to the action than ever before, creating an electrifying atmosphere.
Bayliss, a three-time world Supercross Champion and Moto GP winner, expressed his enthusiasm for the move to Wollongong, emphasizing the shift from the former Sydney Motorcycle Show to a more dynamic and engaging location. The event aims to offer more than just static displays, with opportunities for visitors to test-ride motorcycles and jet skis, adding an interactive element to the festival.
Local officials, including Wollongong City Councillor Leigh Colacino, are optimistic about the tourism and economic benefits that the event will bring to the region. Colacino highlighted the event’s alignment with Destination Wollongong’s mission to showcase the city and its attractions to a broader audience. The influx of visitors is expected to boost the local economy and raise Wollongong’s profile as a vibrant and welcoming destination.
Tickets for the event are set to go on sale soon, with prices starting at $30, making it an accessible and affordable experience for fans of all ages. The full lineup of support classes and live entertainment is yet to be announced, building anticipation for what promises to be a thrilling weekend of motorsport action.
As the countdown to November 9 begins, excitement is building in Wollongong as the city prepares to welcome some of the world’s best motorcycle riders for a spectacular showcase of talent and skill. With the picturesque backdrop of WIN Stadium and the dynamic track layout, the Australian Supercross Championship promises to deliver an unforgettable experience for both dedicated enthusiasts and casual spectators alike.
