Half Way Havoc

Half Way Havoc Arguably the most comfortable show on the calendar, HWH is best described as a family reunion.

Australia’s longest running mini truck based event for custom car lovers – Half Way Havoc brings together minitrucks, full-size pickups, hot rods, and lowriders every year on the Mid North Coast of NSW. A 3 day camping event held inside Macksville Showground, where you can catch up with old mates, or meet new people. If camping isn't you cup of tea, there are nearby motels in Macksville. The show

and shine is held on Saturday and is open to the public, with a small fee for entrants not camping. Presentation is back, being held on Saturday night at the showground and is included in the camping price (bookings essential for non-campers - limited tickets available at the show)



As always - please bring cans or plastic to drink from as glass is not allowed



See you in Macksville!

Well, guys and girls... that's a wrap for Halfway Havoc 2026 !
By now, we hope everyone has made it home safely after an incredible weekend.
Where do we even begin ?
This year’s show was not an easy one, On behalf of the HWH team and GL, we would like to thank every single person who came along, entered a vehicle, sponsored, supported our vendors, or simply stopped by to be part of the event. Your support is what makes this show what it is, and we couldn't do it without you.
It was fantastic catching up with so many familiar faces, and even better to welcome plenty of new ones to HWH. Seeing everyone come together to celebrate the mini trucking scene is exactly what this event is all about.
From all of us, thank you for making Halfway Havoc 2026 another weekend to remember.

We are also pleased to announce there was a total of $7050 raised between the Auction of the HWH2026 number plates kindly donated by Paul Harper and the sale of raffle tickets for items kindly donated by our sponsors. This money will be sent to Jason Luttrells family on behalf of everybody who very kindly donated or purchased tickets over the weekend.

One final note from us. We are also very excited to let you all know the dates for HWH 2027 will be July 23-24 so pencil it in your calendar and stay tuned to our socials for updates.
Once again thank you to all.
Regards the HWH team.

πŸš— Good morning, Half Way Havoc showgoers! πŸš—

Just a friendly reminder that check-in time at Valla Beach Holiday Park is 2:00 pm.

We understand that some of you have already arranged an early check-in directly with the park. Please keep in mind that if you arrive early, the cabin originally allocated to you may not yet be available, and the park may need to move you to a different cabin that is ready.

If you'd like to stay grouped together with your club (which we've worked hard to organise), we kindly ask that you aim for the standard 2:00 pm check-in where possible. This will help the park staff avoid having to make last-minute changes and ensure everything runs as smoothly as possible.

πŸ“± Keep an eye on our social media pages over the coming days for any important event updates.

πŸš™ Safe travels to everyone already making their way to Valla! We can't wait to see you all tomorrow for another fantastic Half Way Havoc.

See you soon!
