The Batmobile arrives on Uber for Batman Day

To celebrate Batman Day (21 September) and 85 years since Batman’s first appearance in comics, DC and Warner Bros. Discovery Australia are partnering with Uber to give fans in Sydney free trips in Batman’s iconic Batmobile for 2 days only in each city. 

Travelling from Gotham City all the way Down Under, fans will have the chance to celebrate Batman Day with a trip through the city in Robin’s seat of Batman’s crimefighting vehicle. On Friday 20 and Saturday 21 September in Sydney fans will be able to order a trip in the fan-built Batmobile for free on demand in the Uber app.

Trips will be available on a first come, first served basis, and riders must be near the Batmobile at the time of booking, within a 5km radius around Sydney CBD. Batman fans must leave their Robin at home though, with only one passenger seat available per trip. If users don’t see the Batmobile as an option in the app, it means that Batman is busy, so make sure you get in quick to avoid missing out on this truly unique experience!

Celebrated around the world on the third Saturday of September, Batman Day is a day where fans of all ages and backgrounds can commemorate Gotham City’s iconic DC Super Hero, the world of Batman and all that comes with it. 2024 also marks 85 years of The Caped Crusader, so it is also a particularly special day for fans to celebrate how Batman is recognised across the globe thanks to his portrayal in universally beloved comic books, TV shows, cartoons and movies.
