It’s not often car enthusiasts have the opportunity to immerse themselves in an indulgent weekend of motorsports in the heart of Sydney. Yet, that is what Concours D’Elegance offers from March 1-3 2024 at Sydney’s Cockatoo Island.
Raise a glass of Champagne Pommery to the classics of motoring with 40 collectors’ cars on show from all over the world and attend expert talks unveiling the history — and histrionics — of these incredible machines.
If your tastes are more contemporary, there will also be a number of supercars on show, including McLaren, Lamborghini, Aston Martin and Bentley. For those keen to embrace the future of sustainable motoring, it’s an opportunity to see examples from Polestar, Rolls Royce and ARC up close.
With lunch prepared by renowned chef Sean Connelly, this is so much more than a car show — it’s an unmatched motoring experience. Whether you are a motoring lover — or you know someone who is — this is a rare opportunity to be among the best things on wheels at an exclusive event.

More than one fifth of Australians are cutting back on the number of people they socialise with

Australian social circles are shrinking as more people look for ways to keep a lid on spending, a new survey has found.
New research from Finder found more than one fifth of respondents had dropped a friend or reduced their social circle because they were unable to afford the same levels of social activity. The survey questioned 1,041 people about how increasing concerns about affordability were affecting their social lives. The results showed 6 percent had cut ties with a friend, 16 percent were going out with fewer people and 26 percent were going to fewer events.
Expensive events such as hens’ parties and weddings were among the activities people were looking to avoid, indicating younger people were those most feeling the brunt of cost of living pressures. According to Canstar, the average cost of a wedding in NSW was between $37,108 to $41,245 and marginally lower in Victoria at $36, 358 to $37,430.
But not all age groups are curbing their social circle. While the survey found that 10 percent of Gen Z respondents had cut off a friend, only 2 percent of Baby Boomers had done similar.
Money expert at Finder, Rebecca Pike, said many had no choice but to prioritise necessities like bills over discretionary activities.
“Unfortunately, for some, social activities have become a luxury they can no longer afford,” she said.
