ABSTRACT
Geelong, the second largest city in the Australian state of Victoria, is situated on scenic Corio Bay about an hour's drive from Melbourne, the state's capital. The traditional owners of the land are the indigenous Wathaurong People who called the bay 'Jillong' and the surrounding land 'Corayo', but new settlers inverted the names that became the City of Geelong and Corio Bay. Geelong’s history of events since that time was initially framed by the annual agricultural 'Geelong Show' and then through its foundation membership of the Victorian Football Association as the Geelong Football Club in 1877. The three-day Geelong Revival Motoring Festival is located on Geelong's palm-fringed waterfront precinct and promoted as 'Australia's Largest Classic Motoring Festival'. The Geelong Revival's premise is equally inclusive and has similarly themed experiences but without Goodwood's admission costs or exclusivity.
