After necessary consideration, Variety SA has made the decision to change this year’s Bash route.

Recent flooding across several planned regions in Queensland and New South Wales has left many tracks underwater and inaccessible, making it unsafe for the event to proceed on the original route. While changes to a Bash route are never easy, the safety of entrants, officials, volunteers and the communities we visit will always come first.

While this is a change to our original plans, we’re excited to share that we will be keeping the Bash in South Australia this year, supporting local communities and delivering a strong South Australian–focused event experience. Our operations team has worked tirelessly with the Event Chair to ensure we can deliver an event that captures all the spirit of our SA Bash and provides priceless support to these regional communities in our State.

‘Pivot to Pirie’ will take our colourful convoy through the towns and communities at the heart of South Australia, raising vital funds for the kids and families who need it most.

Every grant, every dollar raised and every stop along the way is an investment in SA, making sure the impact is felt close to home.  

Thank you for your ongoing support.
