We always get a great atmosphere, and a wide range of interesting machines – with upwards of 700 cars often attending.

From JDM to European, USA to Australian, we love all types at our events.

It’s our goal to bring car enthusiasts from multiple generations together, to celebrate this hobby we share, and appreciate each other’s passion for anything on 4 wheels!

NEXT EVENT: MARCH 1ST 2026

  • CARS & CANS

    ROTATIONALS STREET MEETS ARE BACK IN AUCKLAND! NOW AT KUMEU SHOWGROUNDS.

    Here’s what’s happening:

    The next massive, all-out Rotationals car meet and Show and Shine is coming soon (March 1st 2026), and we’ve secured a HUGE piece of land at the Kumeu Showgrounds for this unmissable day.

    We’ll be able to fit upwards of 700 cars on the day, and we still have room to expand! Massive thanks goes out to the Kumeu Showgrounds team for their help and support.

    They’re helping us bring our charity food drives to Auckland, so we can have a crack at beating the 1.1 tonne food record from our last Hamilton food drive with Downtime Entertainment.

    ENTRY:

    Because of the above, we need to charge $10 per car for this event. Note, that’s only per CAR, not per person. There’s no fee per person.

    If we bring in our usual numbers of cars, we should be able to cover it alright. We’ve done over 20 free events for the community now, so we hope you guys will jump on board with us for this!

    Plus, any surplus from that goes into the resources needed to make future events bigger and better.

    Once you’ve paid your $10 car entry, all you need to do is donate a decent can of food, a bag of dry rice, dry pasta, or other non-perishable food.

    If you’re spectating, while you don’t have to, please consider contributing something even if it’s small!

    Times are tough for some of our fellow Kiwis out there, so this is a hugely effective way to help people directly. It’s ALSO a great way to show NZ that this side of the car community does good for the world.

    We welcome cool cars from all backgrounds - JDM, USA, Euro, new, old, ancient, stock, modified etc. If car enthusiasts will get a kick out of seeing your car, bring it along!

    Bowden's Own Show & Shine:

    There will be an automatic entry Show and Shine sponsored by Bowden's Own NZ, with $500 worth of detailing prizes up for grabs!

    Any car that comes along is entered, as we find finalists through photo after the event.

    Finalists will be chosen and hosted on @Rotationals our Instagram story, with our audience voting for the top car in each category:

    - Best USA/Aus
    - Best Euro
    - Best JDM
    - Best Rotary
    - Best FWD

  • Rotationals X Repco: I Am Hope Meet 2024

    We filled out NAPA Autoparts Meremere Dragway to raise funds for I Am Hope; eventually raising over $8,000. Weather wasn't on our side, but we still had the drag strip pumping while the Bowden's Own Show & Shine was packed out. It was another big one for us.
