SA car club grants

Applications are now open for the 2026-2027 SA Car Club Program. Find out how to apply.

Car and motorcycle clubs have a long and proud history in South Australia. They are an important social and recreational outlet for many motoring enthusiasts.

The State Government recognises the pivotal role that car and motorcycle clubs provide to our community. This is why we established the SA Car Club Program.

About the grants

Grants to the value of $500,000 are available in each year of the SA Car Club Program. This funding will support local car and motorcycle clubs across South Australia. This will help them to better meet their growing operating costs, including managing the conditional registration scheme.

Your South Australian car or motorcycle club could be eligible for SA Car Club Program funding to:

  • increase club participation
  • host events
  • improve or upgrade your facilities
  • build capacity
  • streamline operations.

The SA Car Club Program offers grant funding through three streams:

Project type Total stream budget
Program, equipment and operational stream $200,000
Events and activities stream $100,000
Infrastructure stream $200,000

Eligible applicants may submit applications for multiple streams.
