Morrinsville Motorama FAQs

  • Will there be on-site parking?
    There is on-site parking available for public entry. The entry fee for this is $10 and includes the driver and all passengers in the vehicle. We strongly recommend using the parking we provide as you'll have quick access to the event and it'll be much cheaper than paying $5 per person.
  • What is the entry fee for the event?
    Participation in the Car Cruise on Saturday is free. The drive-in movie is $25 per car and includes entry for all passengers. The breakdown for Saturday is as follows:
    • $5 per show car (includes passengers)
    • $10 per public car (this is for on-site parking only and includes all passengers)
    • $5 per person (these are for walk-ins at the gate)
    Due to the location of the grounds we highly recommend using the on-site parking we provide as parking off-site will be minimal.
