Mannum shines through the rain at SA Truck and Ute Show 2025
Cold temperatures have not made a dent in one of the town's biggest annual events.
Despite a wet and chilly start, with temperatures hovering between six and nine degrees, the 2025 SA Truck and Ute Show has come alive at Mannum.
Several thousand visitors from across South Australia flocked to Sunday’s event, bringing vibrant community spirit that matched the impressive lineup of vehicles.
Seventy-five trucks – from Kenworth, International, Mack and Dodge to Mercedes-Benz – and 17 utes, including Holden and Ford models, plus several panel vans and four-wheel drives, transformed Randell Street and Mary Ann Reserve into a mechanical wonderland.
The event featured market stalls, live music and family-friendly entertainment.
Among the crowd was 13-year-old Thomas Hogben, attending with his uncle Peter and grandmother Julie in their Holden ute.
