They keep the Territory moving.
Long before most of us are awake, they’re already on the road.
It’s a job that demands resilience, skill and an unwavering commitment to getting the job done. And this Friday, it’s our turn to raise a glass to the men and women who spend their lives behind the wheel.
Truckies Day is coming to Ladbrokes Pioneer Park this Friday, 28 August, a day built around community, mateship and recognising one of the Territory’s toughest industries.
Whether you’re behind the wheel, work in the transport industry, have family out on the road, or simply appreciate the people who keep the Territory connected, come and join us trackside
🎟️ $20 entry
Every dollar raised will be donated to the National Road Transport Hall of Fame, helping preserve the stories, history and people who have shaped Australia’s road transport industry.
