Car-Fest North is a classic car festival for the whole family, jam-packed full of cars, music, food, and family fun.
Car-Fest North aims to bring more cars than ever before, more motor action and more speed machines. With a new track layout, Car-Fest North will feature two paddocks with new collections that have never been seen before at the event.
The new track is an amazing 2.2km (1.35 miles) long and circles the entire festival. Drivers can also boast their skills before taking to the track in the Demo Zone, showing off their wheel spins, drifting capabilities and much more.
Double excitement comes in the form of two paddocks that will feature some of the best, fastest and loudest cars around, entries for this year’s show include, Autocross, Historic Rally, Stock Car Racing, Vintage Racers, Super Cars, Hot Rods, Movies Cars, and more.
Many events this year are paying homage to one of our favourite British made marques of all time, Mini. Car-Fest North is looking at bringing as many Minis to the show as possible, to create not a mini, but a mighty display of the icon.
Popular at many classic car shows, including the NEC Classic Motor Show, Sporting Bears Dream Rides will be on hand to offer visitors a ride of a lifetime in one of their exclusive cars from their fleet. For a small fee, visitors can experience what it is like to ride in a car that they never thought they would have the opportunity to do, and better yet, 50% of the money raised will go towards BBC Children in Need, whilst the rest will be distributed evenly across other charity partners.
You can book a ride now and check out what vehicles you have the chance to get behind the wheel of.
New for 2019, Car-Fest North will allow those seriously thinking of buying a car to jump in some of the latest vehicles from prestigious car manufacturers such as Jaguar, Aston Martin, Mercedes and more.
Or, for budding young enthusiasts, the Big Learner Relay will be attending where young car lovers can take a 20-minute driving experience in a manual car, fitted with dual controls. Book your experience now!
