Building on the back of a highly successful GT Festival Sandown, the Shannons SpeedSeries has begun preparations for the 2025 GT Festival The Bend.

Taking place at the impressive South Australian circuit of Shell V-Power Motorsport Park, GT Festival The Bend serves as the fifth round of the 2025 season and the final event in Australia.

Featuring in the round will be season regulars of GT World Challenge Australia powered by AWS, Monochrome GT4 Australia and the First Focus Radical Cup Australia, while the Porsche Michelin Sprint Challenge and Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli Australasia return to the series.

For the first time in 2025, there will be six categories featuring at a Shannons SpeedSeries as the popular Group S Racing joins the series – the category being made up on classic Australian sports cars from the 1950s to 1970s.

There will be plenty of opportunities for fans to watch the action unfold throughout the weekend, both at the track and from the comfort of their own homes, with 7plus once again to broadcast Saturday and Sunday’s schedules around Australia.

International viewers will also be able to catch all GT World Challenge Australia and Monochrome GT4 Australia sessions on the GT World YouTube channel.

For those attending in person, entry on Friday is free for everyone, while free paddock access and grid walks are some of the major highlights, giving fans the opportunity to meet drivers and teams and see the cars up close.

Ticket prices start at $35 for a daily pass, $60 for a weekend pass, while fans aged 15 and under can attend all weekend for free.

GT Festival The Bend takes place at Shell V-Power Motorsport Park on 5 – 7 September.
