As a business, we receive many requests for sponsorship and community support, and as much as we would love to help everyone, unfortunately we simply can’t.

We have now finalised our sponsorship commitments for 2027, choosing organisations, clubs and individuals we’re proud to stand behind.

We’re excited to introduce one of our 2027 sponsored partners — and we couldn’t be prouder to support them! 💙

Supporting our community is incredibly important to us, and we look forward to sharing their journey and achievements throughout 2027.

Here’s to a fantastic year ahead! 🙌

📣👏 Thank You to Our Platinum Sponsor 👏📣
The Riverina Classic would like to give a huge thank you to The Punt Hotel for coming on board as a Platinum Sponsor for the 2027 event!
Your support helps us deliver a great competition, bring people together, and most importantly, continue giving back to our local community through charities, sporting groups, and environmental initiatives.
It’s support from local businesses like yours that allows the Riverina Classic to keep growing and making a real impact in our region.
We truly appreciate your support and look forward to having you as part of the 2027 Riverina Classic! 🎣
So get on down to The Punt for a beer (or 2) and support local!🍻

🌸 BLOSSOM SEASON IS ALMOST HERE! 🌸

We’re excited for our visitors to see the beautiful blossoms across the local farms over the coming weeks. 🌸🌿

It’s such a special time of year around Darlington Point and the Riverina, with the countryside coming alive with colour.

Make a day of it — enjoy the drive, take in the blossoms, then stop in at The Punt Hotel for a cold drink, a bite to eat and some country hospitality on the banks of the Bidgee. 🍻

🌸 Spring is on its way! 🌸
