The 50th West Coast Classic will be the largest event Surfing Tasmania has presented. We are anticipating more than 120 surfers will be competing and a further 100 to 150 people will be in attendance to watch and support the event over the four days.

Surfing Tasmania is doing everything possible to ensure the event runs smoothly. To assist we ask that you review the following important event information:

Heat Draw – the 50th West Coast Classic Heat Draw will be released via Live Heats from Thursday 17th April and be available for the duration of the event.

Event Briefing – Event Directors (Luke Johannesen and Glenn Saltmarsh) will hold daily event briefings between 7.00 and 7.30am at the Marrawah Store (800 Comeback Road Marrawah) to provide details on event locations and other important information – expected event start time (first heat) is 8.00am. Updates on event locations will be posted on Surfing Tasmania’s page.

Car Parking – most of the proposed event locations are situated within Parks and Wildlife controlled areas. With many vehicles expected we request that you observe respective access restrictions and follow the directions of the Event management team to ensure that we comply with our Parks and Wildlife conditions

Other Events – Over the four days, there will be other events running around the competition. These events will primarily be held at our sponsors venue Marrawah Inn (821 Comeback Road Marrawah). With expected crowds, we strongly recommend that you make pre-bookings for meals to help the team at Marrawah Inn manage the expected numbers. Details of the other events will be communicated in the next few weeks.
