LEADFOOT FESTIVAL
REVVING UP
ickets for New Zealand’s answer to the
Goodwood Revival are on sale for the
February 2-3 event. The Leadfoot Festival is
a unique weekend on the New Zealand calendar
that brings together an incredible mix of classic and
current two and four wheel competition vehicles
and motorsport legends.
Tickets are offered to the general public with
an invitation to Rod and Shelly Millen’s private
grounds at the Leadfoot Ranch in Hahei on the
Coromandel Peninsula. From classic formula
and road race cars to off-road machines and
motorcycles, Leadfoot attracts competitors and
race vehicles in an enthusiastic display of speed,
style, sound, smell and colour. More than 130
champion and competitive racers are handpicked
by Rod Millen to receive the coveted invitation to
participate in the Leadfoot Festival.
Guests will be given a one of a kind motorsport
experience featuring unparalleled access to the
Festival competitors, race vehicles and pits. The
selection of machinery includes a spectacular array
of the finest competition vehicles dating back more
than 100 years old to present day championship
cars.
The 150-acre ocean-front and farm estate in
beautiful Hahei features a mile-long driveway that
winds through the property, specifically designed
to be the perfect hill climb. A collection of static
celebrated vintage cars and bikes will line areas of
the paddocks to complete the weekend.
In a unique twist, visitors are encouraged to
dress in period style clothing and to step back
in time. This makes Leadfoot Festival a truly
unique and family oriented experience and an
incredible celebration of motorsport and all things
automotive. Head to www.leadfootfestival.com for
