2026 saw another successful Allora Heritage Weekend. President Graeme McMillan said the committee was happy with the event. Crowd numbers were up even though the weather was very hot. More trucks and cars were on show this year...

Last month Architecture was the topic, and Allora Photography Group (APG) members wandered near and far to find that special image and gain that illusive Honour which must meet some very strict criteria for John Stewart to award ... "Choose Your God" by Michael Campbell made members feel a little dizzy with the towering heights.

Allora’s Wikner Ford Special is on the highway heading south to Maroubra – not to surf but to be a headline act at huge celebrations ... The Vintage Car Club of Australia is celebrating the Centenary of the opening event at the infamous Maroubra Olympic Speedway in 1925. Of that initial event only one racing car remains as it raced that day, Doug’s Wikner Ford Special.
