Arriving by car is the easiest and most convenient way to get to the Saint Side show.  A celebration of all automotive scenes and styles, with a focus on customised, vintage, restored or preserved, we know that cars play a huge role in how we all live and express ourselves, they can be our biggest life accessory.

We want everyone to come out and bring their pride and joy and have a great time at the centre, but there is some rules to adhere to, so that the show runs smoothly, our team can assist you when you arrive, and everyone can have a safe and great time at the event.

Think of it as a cars and coffee event, but on steroids, and everything is lower.

1. Cool, collectible, custom and quirky

If you are planning on attending with your car, we really appreciate cars that have been modified to be cool, rides that are collectible, cars customised uniquely or models that are quirky and you don't see often at other car shows. Lowriders play the biggest role in our show and we accomodate as much as possible for them inside the business park, and then we will have the surrounding areas along Cranwell Street for muscle, hot rod, truck, chrome bumper, stance, classic US, Euro or Japanese, followed by cars with major ride height changes (super low, air bags, wound down coils, hydraulics) are favoured the most. We also enjoy new cars, exotics and limited, but they don't necessary get prime location and focus just because a car might be expensive. 

There are no prizes or awards for cars, it's just a great event to show them off.

2. Parking around the show and enjoying the event.

The Saint Side show runs 4-8pm, interior spots in the complex are hand picked prior to show with only some available on the day, and the remaining spots are available in the parking bays along Cranwell Street, and adjoining streets such as Annesley Street

Our volunteers will be at front to assist and respectfully inform you of the nearest parking area for you. Please note the day can get quite busy, and the volunteers are unpaid, they are not looking for arguments with people about what their car is or what they think they deserve. Please listen to them and help them keep traffic flowing. Any unsavoury behaviour will not be tolerated, we have instructed them to simply ignore abuse.

Any dangerous driving will also be noted and reported.

Once parked, you can attend the entry of the show by walking to the Saint Side corner, or if you have parked on the street, through the pedestrian access which is by the coffee shop entrance, at the T intersection round about of Cranwell and Annesley Street.

3. Time, Entry and Notes for Car Owners

The Show and Shine begins at 4pm. All cars are welcome, and some attendees come earlier.  There is no cost to park anywhere in the area.  

Cars entered in the primary show area of the business park  must remain parked from 4pm, and not move until after the show finishes, as there are bike riders and bicycle activities going on around the business park and that includes the entrance location.

For safety, please respect these rules.

If you would like to leave early or move freely, parking along Cranwell Street and surrounding streets allows you to move if you wish.

4. Daily cars, trucks and trailers

People arriving early to setup as vendors, drop off bikes for the show, or coming with trays and trailers, once you have unloaded please utilise parking that is furthest from the Cranwell Street, we recommend the top end of Annesley Street, and along the side parking Cranwell Park. This is the safest and most accomodating for daily cars, and cars with trays and trailers. This allows a nicer workflow for show attendees. With nicer cars funnelled to the nearer car parks on the day.

5. Due to Public Liability Insurance, we no longer allow unselected cars to be parked inside the show area of the business park, as this has bicycle riders and activities happening for the full length of the show. Lowriders will be allowed inside the business park only.

6. Due to the popularity of the show, spots can fill up quickly, so please be sure to come as early as possible to assure a good spot if you are coming in your pride and joy. Some people usually arrive pre-show to secure a good spot.
