Bega Valley Rally (AMSAG)

The Bega Valley Rally is one of the most iconic, well patronised, and most loved events on the east coast of Australia. With a history dating back to the 1960’s when it was known as the “Snowy Rally”, the Bega Valley Rally, as it is known now, commenced running in 1973 and has long held a strong position on local, state, and national calendars. The Bega Valley Rally draws upon its tradition and is currently the only 2-day rally held in NSW, and we believe the second oldest rally in Australia, behind the famous Alpine. The Sapphire Coast Sporting Car Club Inc. (SCSCC) is proud to be staging the event again in 2026.
As an organising team, we’ve been very conscious of creating an event that offers competitors maximum value for money. We have selected some of the very best stages the Bega Shire has to offer, including Upper Cobargo, Buckajo, and Ben Boyd Roads, plus a few new ones this year to challenge your skills. On top of this to make things a little more interesting we have included a few night stages on the Saturday night, and then some great stages on Sunday south of Eden will complete the approximately 258 kms of competitive stages.
With local community consideration in mind, we will run the shire stages in Bega starting Saturday morning, leading into the afternoon and then move the event via transport stages down to Boydtown Beach Holiday Park, just south of Eden. This area will also be the service park for the remainder of the event. After a meal break for crews, we will run the planned night stages.
Sunday will see the event restart from Eden Service Park (Boydtown Beach Holiday Park), to complete several more stages revisiting the service park during the morning before the 1st car finishes around 13:45
A presentation ceremony will follow to round off the weekend. Further details will be available closer to the Event. The organising committee have been thrilled by the support we’ve had from so many people. Be it the local community, business leaders, the rallying community, car club members, or local government, the positive vibrations around this event are infectious.
We would also like to thank the Bega Valley Shire Council and its councillors for getting behind the event and allowing us to utilise some of their outstanding shire roads. They have had the foresight to recognise the benefits that promoting sporting and social events within our shire has, and we applaud that vision.
Members of the Forestry Corporation NSW and the NSW Police have been equally helpful and supportive to the organisers.
We are looking forward to seeing all of you at the event, and hope that not only will you have a great and safe event, but that by you entering and giving us feedback we will be able to continue to deliver the Bega Valley Rally to you in ever improving formats for many years to come.
