# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Motafrenz Weekend Away for the Bendigo National Swap Meet
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 14 Nov, 2025 at 08:00 am – Sun, 16 Nov, 2025 at 08:00 am
- **Event Description**: The Bendigo National Swap Meet is one of Australia’s largest swap meets. It has been held in Bendigo since 1975. The Swap is owned by the Federation of Veteran Vintage and Classic Clubs of Victoria (“the Federation”) and is now co-managed by the Veteran, Vintage and Classic Club Bendigo (VVCCB) and the Motafrenz Car Club.

Motafrenz will be organising a weekend away for volunteers and visitors. We have booked a house which will be our base. From here you can head off to your volunteer shift, or join us for the many non-Swap activities we have planned.

Our last weekend away for the Swap Meet was in 2023 - and it was a blast!

For those coming up for the day, please drop by the house for a coffee or a meal - these types of weekends-away are wonderful social events!

Motafrenz’ participation with the Swap helps the Federation to raise income which is used to support 115 clubs with trophy donations and grants for equipment, picnic days, displays, and meeting expenses. Our new role as co-managers will provide the income for our expanded philanthropic endeavours.
