Murtoa's Big Weekend

First weekend in October


Show & Shine

All those who attended were friendly people keen to see what was on display. Quite often the smaller Show & Shine displays in country towns have a few interesting surprises. Who knows what unusual vehicles are kept on farms or are in backyard sheds and are brought out occasionally for all to see. Show entrants come from far and wide. All are pleased to attend. Any trophies won are a bonus.


The Show & Shine event held on a sunny Sunday on McDonald Street was a spectacle to behold. The classic cars gleamed under the bright sunlight. A hint of Mad Max vibes lingering in the air, giving the event a unique and edgy feel. Despite the vintage beauty of the cars on display, it was the people that truly made the Show & Shine memorable. The event seemed to attract a diverse crowd, each person bringing their own flair and personality to the gathering. From car enthusiasts to curious onlookers, each with their own story to tell.


As the day unfolded, the sound of engines revving and the sight of polished chrome reflecting the sunlight created a sensory feast for all in attendance. The Show & Shine was not just a display of classic cars but a celebration of automotive history and the passion that drives enthusiasts to preserve these treasures.

A large market day is also held over the weekend.


A Water Tower Museum is open daily. Noon to two and has a large taxidermy collection. The annual Agricultural Show is held on Friday to begin the weekend of activities. Murtoa is in the Wimmera two hundred km from Melbourne.


Murtoa is also the home of the, 'Murtoa Stick Shed' and could be included on the Silo Art Trail route. Read the Stick Shed post.
