Introduction to the National 4×4 Outdoors Show

We at MRT are thrilled to be part of the National 4×4 Outdoors Show in Brisbane, happening from 14 to 16 March. It’s one of the biggest events for outdoor enthusiasts, where you’ll find everything from cutting-edge off-road vehicles to innovative camping solutions. We can’t wait to showcase our top-of-the-line chassis mount canopies, tray and canopy packages, and more.

Why the National 4×4 Outdoors Show Matters to MRT

Our core mission is to give off-roaders the best gear possible, and there’s no better place to connect with fellow adventurers than the National 4×4 Outdoors Show. This event brings together experts, enthusiasts, and industry pioneers under one roof, providing the perfect atmosphere to learn, explore, and share our passion for 4×4 travel. For us, it’s a golden chance to demonstrate our commitment to innovation and reliability.

The Brisbane Location Advantage

Brisbane is known for its accessibility to a variety of terrains, from rainforest trails to coastal drives. Add the city’s laid-back vibe and pleasant March weather, and you have the ideal backdrop for an action-packed outdoor expo. After you explore the show, you can even test out your new MRT canopy on a scenic weekend adventure just a short drive away.

Our Story: MRT’s Journey So Far

Over the years, MRT has evolved from a small family business into a leading provider of chassis mount ute canopies and tray and canopy packages. We’ve always kept our focus on real-world testing, robust designs, and practical solutions tailored to Australia’s demanding off-road conditions.

The MRT Origin

We started MRT with a simple objective: craft rugged and long-lasting ute canopies that could conquer the harshest terrains. Our early success showed us there was a growing community of 4×4 enthusiasts who wanted more than just standard off-the-shelf products. By constantly adapting to user feedback, we developed a loyal following that’s helped us refine and expand our offerings.

Our Specialisation in Chassis Mount Ute Canopies and Tray & Canopy Packages

Chassis Mount Ute Canopies

We’re especially proud of our chassis mount canopies because they attach directly to your vehicle’s frame for unbeatable stability and weight distribution. Take a look at our X-Series Chassis Mount Canopy Product to see how we blend heavy-duty construction with sleek design.

Versatile Tray and Canopy Packages

We also specialise in integrated tray and canopy setups that offer a cohesive solution for your ute. These packages are engineered for maximum storage and durability, and you can explore them all on our Tray and Canopy Packages page. Each setup is put through rigorous testing to ensure it meets our high standards for toughness and performance.

Must-See Spots Around Brisbane

While you’re here, why not explore Brisbane’s many attractions? Take a river cruise, wander around South Bank, or venture a bit farther to check out the Sunshine Coast or Gold Coast. Your newly outfitted ute will be more than ready for some scenic drives.

Accommodation Suggestions

If you want an immersive outdoor experience, consider camping just outside Brisbane. You’ll be close enough to attend the show comfortably, and you can test out your gear the minute you pack up.

Staying in Local Hotels

Brisbane offers numerous hotels to suit different budgets, many within a short commute to the showgrounds. Book early to secure a convenient spot, especially if you’re planning on multiple days at the expo.

Transport and Logistics

If you’re bringing your own 4×4, confirm parking and any size restrictions. Alternatively, Brisbane’s public transport network is reliable and can be a stress-free option if you don’t want to worry about city traffic.
