All Alfa Romeos will be displayed according to their respective model and series.

Spettacolo is AROCA Victoria's biggest annual event!

The 2025 Spettacolo Show & Shine returns to the manicured lawns of Wesley College's Glen Waverley Campus.

The event regularly attracts about 350 examples of our favourite Italian marque, so its time to start preparing your Alfa for display in this year's event. 

To display your Alfa Romeo at the Spettacolo Show & Shine, just turn up on the day and pay the $TBA admission fee at the gate. You will then be directed to the appropriate area for your Alfa Romeo. You will also be provided with a Show & Shine entry form / score sheet at the gate, which you will need to complete and submit by 10:00 am on the day if you want your Alfa Romeo included in the Spettacolo Show & Shine competition. 

Proud owners of good clean Alfa Romeos are encouraged to enter the Spettacolo Show & Shine competition, which will be judged on the day. The judges will inspect your car's exterior and interior for cleanliness. Cars will compete in the categories defined in accordance with the Club's Registers. A tie breaker may be used to determine a winner. 

Make sure that you submit a Show & Shine entry form no later than 10:00 am on the day, or your Alfa Romeo may be overlooked when the competition is judged. Entering the Show & Shine is optional, and it is free.

Spettacolo Show & Shine is proudly sponsored by Meguiar's, eni lubricants and Zagame Automotive
