Register


We are most excited to reveal to our members the details of our next escape!  This time we are visiting the vibrant Nations Capital, for both a tulip display, and most importantly, awesome car displays at the German Auto Day! 

What to expect

We are basing this escape program around attending German Auto Day GAD on Sunday 28th September, and will include a number of great activities and stops along the way.

A convoy will depart Sydney on Friday 26th September and will head for Canberra CBD via the Southern Highlands and Goulburn for comfort stops. 

To help attendees forget the boring Hume Highway, we've organised with BMW Car Club Canberra to join a social drive on Saturday morning to enjoy all of their best roads on offer. We will conclude for lunch at the Wee Jasper Distillery. Following this event, we will wash our cars at the Hume Truck Wash (hot wash facilities) to prep them for GAD the following day.

Group dinners have been organised for both Friday and Saturday evenings and are payable at the time of registration.

Escape to ACT Itinerary

Please find version 1 of the trip itinerary here. Please note, the itinerary is subject to change and a final version will be emailed 1 week prior to the event to all registered attendees. Note - Lunch and dinner reservations have been confirmed. 

Accommodation

We've arranged a special rate at The Deco Hotel located in Braddon in Canberra. The Hotel is modern, has excellent facilities, and secure underground parking. Instructions to book the accommodation are contained in the trip itinerary. If the Hotel does not suit your requirements, you may stay elsewhere.

GAD

All GAD attendees (even if you are not joining us on the escape) must register your attendance through BMW Car Club Canberra's website here.
