Daniher’s Drive heads to the city of churches in 2026 

FightMND has announced that the 10th Daniher’s Drive will take place in South Australia in 2026, marking a major milestone in the event’s proud history. 

The news was revealed during last nights Daniher’s Drive Trivia Gala and Auction evening, where participants came together for a night of laughter, competition and generosity. The announcement was met with huge excitement as the crowd learned that while the drive has ventured slightly into NSW and SA over the years, next year’s convoy will be based exclusively interstate for the first time. 

The Adelaide initiative is a part of celebrating a decade of driving to defeat MND.  

Taking place from 8–11 October 2026, the milestone Drive will include time in Adelaide and a scenic journey through some of the state’s most stunning regions. It’s set to be an unforgettable celebration. One that promises plenty of new memories both on and off the road.  

Day 3 of the 2025 Drive: From track to Torquay 

As excitement builds for next year, the 2025 Drive continued to deliver unforgettable moments on Day 3. The day kicked off with high-speed fun at Phillip Island Go Karts, where drivers and passengers swapped their convoy cars for helmets and a few friendly laps of the track. 

From there, participants made their way to Sorrento, boarding the Searoad Ferries for a scenic cruise across Port Phillip Bay to Queenscliff. With clear skies, fresh sea air and plenty of laughter on deck, it was a perfect snapshot of what makes Daniher’s Drive so special. Connection, adventure and shared purpose. 

The convoy then rolled into Torquay for the final celebration of the 2025 Drive at RACV Torquay, where the Drive family came together for a fancy dress night themed “Legends of the Land Down Under.” The theme was a fitting tribute to 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher, whose courage and determination continue to inspire every kilometre of the journey.
