2025 46th Mustang Convention
The 46th Mustang Convention in New Zealand is to be hosted by the Manawatu Mustang Owners Club (MMOC), and will take place over Labour Weekend (24th – 27th October, 2025).
After the last two Manawatu conventions were spread across the MMOC region (Napier in 2018, and Wellington 2011) the 2025 convention returns to Palmerston North for the first time since 2006.
If you are a member of one of the seven New Zealand Mustang clubs (listed at the foot of this page) we invite you to register your interest in showing your car and/or partaking in associated activities planned for that weekend.
Please book your Palmerston North accommodation early to avoid missing a spot at one of our recommended hotels.
