The committe are currently working to bring ABD back bigger and better in 2027, and look forward to once again showcasing Britains finest at Echunga oval with the wonderful picnic atmosphere of ABD on the 28th of February 2027.

At the Echunga Recreation Grounds, this is a multipurpose sports area including tennis courts, netball courts and two ovals end to end for Football or Cricket.  These playing areas are surrounded with various types and quantities of Australian trees and scrub.  “All British Day Australiana”? to get to Echunga it is approximately 30 min up the South-Eastern Freeway from the Tollgate

Guide dogs most certainly yes, family pet’s sorry no, as the grounds are council owned and have a no dog policy.

We have ample FREE public car parking. Enter into Anderson Road of the Echunga Road you will find the CFS marshalled paddock across the road from the ovals, we have a traffic controlled pedestrian crossing operating on the day.

Yes, within the grounds, there is limited parking available for permit holders adjacent to gate A. Toilets are provided for people with a disability. For those attending the day in a wheelchair, both ovals are grassed, and internal roads are a mixture of graval and asphalt. A quiet room is adjacent to the St. John first aid station.

Yes, the local sporting and service Clubs do the catering for the event. 

There is a licensed club lounge area in the Club Rooms where there is seating and tables with a bar for those who might like a small drink with their lunch. Or you can BYO lunch and sit under one of our four 6 metre x 12 metre marquees on the ovals. There is limited seating available on the ovals, but we recommend that you bring a chair or two if you wish to take a break from walking around the vast display.

We try to keep costs down as much as we can, Insurance is a part of the pricing we simply could not safely control 700 vehicles leaving on an ad hoc basis.
