SA Car Club Program

Car and motorcycle clubs have a long and proud history in South Australia and are an important social and recreational outlet for many motoring enthusiasts.

The State Government recognises the pivotal role these car and motorcycle clubs provide to the South Australian community and has established a four-year SA Car Club Program from 2022–2025. This will enable clubs to host bigger and better events and get more South Australians involved.

About the grants

Grants to the value of $500,000 are available in each year of the SA Car Club Program. This funding will support local car and motorcycle clubs across South Australia, so they can better meet their growing operating costs, including managing the conditional registration scheme.

Your South Australian car or motorcycle club could be eligible for SA Car Club Program funding to:

  • increase club participation
  • host events
  • improve or upgrade your facilities
  • build capacity
  • streamline operations

The SA Car Club Program offers grants funding through three streams:

Project type Total stream budget
Program, equipment and operational stream $200,000
Events and activities stream $100,000
Infrastructure stream $200,000

Eligible applicants may submit applications for multiple streams.
