Riverbend Park
Experience the excitement of Targa Tasmania 2026, one of the world's most iconic tarmac rallies, taking place across Tasmania.
Celebrating Tasmania's spectacular landscapes and winding country roads, this five-day motorsport event brings together classic and modern performance cars, skilled drivers and motorsport enthusiasts for an unforgettable journey across the island.
First run in 1992 and named for Sicily's Targa Florio, Targa Tasmania takes competitive and touring crews over five days of closed public roads, from the mountain passes of the north-east to the West Coast.
The 32nd Targa Tasmania, from Launceston to Hobart on 18–22 November 2026, spans almost 1600km, including 439km across 41 closed stages.
The next chapter is already set: Targa Florio, a new three-day tarmac rally based in Burnie, debuts in April 2027, Targa Tasmania returns on 17–21 November 2027, and the Tasmanian Government supports the event through Events Tasmania to 2029
Spectators can experience the action at designated viewing locations and enjoy the atmosphere as rally cars travel through Tasmania's regional towns and communities.
