Meet Hema Maps at the Sydney 4WD and Adventure Show!

If you’re heading to the Sydney 4WD and Adventure Show this weekend, make sure you check out the Hema stand — and our daily ‘Exploring Outback Australia’ talk. 

We’re gearing up for this year’s Sydney 4WD and Adventure Show, held at Sydney Dragway, Eastern Creek, on 8–10 September 2023. This year’s Show is a special event for us because we’re also celebrating our 40th birthday. That’s right, Hema Maps has been around since 1983, maintaining its position as Australia’s preeminent supplier of trusted and verified maps, atlases and guides and navigators.

Running since its inception in 1992, the 4WD and Adventure Show offers a world of fun for the outdoor enthusiast. As always, there will be all the latest products for four-wheel driving, caravanning and camping, boating, fishing and more — all in one place. Plus, there be a massive range of new and exciting products, as well as plenty of activities and entertainment, including the Engel Bush Camp stage, content creator’s area, special guests, 4WD recovery demos, fishing stage, rock crawling action on Tough Dog Mountain, motorbike demos and much more. It’s also a great opportunity to meet like-minded people and just have a fun, informative day. Read on to find out more about our presence at this year’s Show.

The Hema Maps Stand

Hema Maps has been attending outdoor lifestyle shows for more than 10 years and is proud to return to the Sydney 4WD and Adventure Show for the second time. Come on down to Stand M59, not far from the main entrance, to meet the team and pick up some bargains.

We’ll have our range of products available for purchase on the day, ranging from touring and outdoor accessories from A247 to all our atlases and guides, maps and navigators. We will have plenty of ‘Show specials’ that will only be available to purchase directly from our stand for the three days at the Australian 4WD and Adventure Show.

Exploring Outdoor Australia: A Planning Guide for Travelling Australia and the Simpson Desert with the Hema Map Patrol

Don’t miss our daily 10.30–11.30am ‘Exploring Outdoor Australia’ talk at the Madventure Stage where Justin from Hema Maps takes you on a recent 3000km trip through the Simpson Desert. Traversing the Simpson Desert is no easy feat and takes plenty of preparation and understanding of the journey ahead. Join Justin ‘on’ the expedition as Hema’s iconic LC76 Map Patrol tackles this bucket-list destination and asks those important questions including vehicle setup, communication, fuel usage, water, permits and all the dos and don’ts to safely navigate this journey.
