First held at Bathurst Airport in May, 2016 the fundraiser attracted an estimated 8000 people and raised more than $35,000 for the charity.

While the event had a hiatus this year, it will be back on April 7 and 8, 2018.

Lifeline Central West executive director Alex Ferguson said Soar, Ride and Shine will once again feature a range of aircraft as well as cars and motorcycles.

“There will be a full flying display on Saturday afternoon and everything else on Sunday – cars, bikes, a fair, music, an air show, and a show and shine,” he said.

More details are expected to be revealed at the event launch on September 27.
