The All Ford Day is held every February in Geelong, the Birthplace of Ford Australia, bringing together hundreds of beautiful Ford vehicles of almost every year and model to celebrate the Ford brand and at the same time raise funds for Geelong charities and community projects through the Kiwanis Club. With the new Falcon just days away from its public debut it is hoped a bit of added excitement will be put back into the blue oval.

The 2006 years event was held on the sweeping lawns of Deakin University at Waurn Ponds. The All Ford Day is an annual event that  dates back to 1991.

The day has fun for the whole family, as well as the cars there will be famous race drivers, entertainment, food and amusements.
