    Event description

    Join us for an action-packed Land Rover 75th Anniversary Rally with exclusive off-road safaris exploring seldom accessed high-country stations around Wanaka.

    PLEASE NOTE: We’ve had a massive response to Safari registrations and all Safaris are now FULLY BOOKED.   However, you can still register for Wheels at Wanaka and the LR75 Anniversary Rally at any time.

    To participate in LR75 you must register and pay for both a Wheels at Wanaka pass (for each person attending), as well as the LR75 Rally registration fee (now only $10 fee for as many Landy’s as you’re bringing).

    This is a Land Rover only event to celebrate 75 years of this iconic brand turning owners into mechanics!   All Land Rovers are welcome, from early Series Ones to Defenders, Discos and Range Rovers.

    The L75 Anniversary Rally will be held in conjunction with Wheels at Wanaka, proudly presented by Three Parks, Wanaka. A biennial event, alternating every odd year Easter with Warbirds Over Wanaka International Air Show. Wheels at Wanaka is an ALL vehicle, ALL machinery “history-in-motion” vintage fair - including steam engines, tractors & farming heritage, cars of all sorts, motor-bikes, trucks, earthmovers and heavy machinery.
